Overview of Collibra Cataloging
Collibra Data Intelligence Cloud is an enterprise data governance and cataloging platform. Its core catalog features allow organizations to discover, manage, and govern data assets across multi-cloud and on-premises environments.
Key cataloging components include
Data Catalog: Acts as a single source of truth to find datasets, reports, dashboards, and tables.
Data Lineage: Maps out data flows from source to consumption (e.g., tracking data pipelines or business intelligence reports back to database tables).
Data Quality & Governance: Automatically tags sensitive data, tracks business definitions, assigns asset ownership, and monitors compliance policies.
How to Connect Collibra to GitHub
Depending on your intent, connecting Collibra to GitHub typically involves two common scenarios: using Git repositories for technical data lineage/analytics parsing (like LookML) or building custom programmatic integrations via GitHub/APIs.
Scenario 1: Connecting a Git/GitHub Repository for Lineage (e.g., Looker, dbt,
or Code Files)
Collibra Data Lineage can connect to Git repositories to pull code files or data models directly to extract technical lineage.
1. Configure Collibra Edge: Ensure you have a running Collibra Edge site configured within your Collibra workplace, as Edge handles secure outbound/inbound connectivity to on-prem or cloud-hosted repositories.
2. Create a Git Connection
* Go to your Collibra main toolbar and click Settings.
- Navigate to Edge and open your specific Sites overview.
- Click on the name of your site to open the site page.
- In the Connections section, click Create Connection.
- Select Git connection from the list.
1. Provide GitHub Credentials & Parameters:
* Provide the repository URL (e.g., your GitHub repo link).
- Configure authentication details (such as a GitHub Personal Access Token or SSH key) to allow Collibra Edge to safely authenticate and pull code (such as SQL scripts, dbt models, or LookML files) from your repository.
