Viewing and Managing Domains in Catalog

If you select the Domain from the Kind dropdown, a catalog list of Domains opens in the catalog table with different columns. There are Common Searching and Managing Features in the Catalog that can help you find the domain you want to manage.

You can search the key information of a domain by using the following columns.

This column shows the list of domains present in the catalog. Click any domain name from the column to view the following details.

• Overview - The overview tab is segmented into the following details.

  • About - You can view the source repository of a domain in View SOURCE and technical documentation in View TECHDOCS. To edit the About section, click the Edit Metadata icon. This takes you to the source repository location of the domain, where you can make the changes. To view the changed domain metadata, click Schedule Entity Refresh icon. To view owner information in detail, click the owner name.

  • Relations - This is a non-exhaustive and read-only list of relations between current entities and other entities. Each relation has a source, a target, and a type that shows what relation the source has with the target. Relations are commonly bidirectional, so that there is a pair of relation types each describing one direction of the relation.

    In Relations, you can see the simple view of domain relations with other entities. To view the elaborated relations of the domain, click View Graph. Use the search filters like max depth, kinds, relations, directions, and curve to find the entity relations. Use the Simplified or Merge Relation toggle switch to see simple or complex relations view. You can scroll to zoom in and zoom out and move around the relations diagram.
