With this release, you will now be able to download your asset's downstream and upstream impact as a list. This means that when changes are made by you to your asset ownership, you will be able to get context on the downstream impact of the change.
This report will also help in debugging issues that occurred to your asset by performing root-cause analysis on the upstream assets.
We're happy to announce a native connection to SAP HANA, the most popular ERP system.
Configure the connection to your SAP HANA instance from Marketplace and bring your SAP HANA assets into Atlan, enabling governance, lineage, and — with direct connectivity — querying.
In the age of the cloud, discovering data assets in your on-premise systems has been a big challenge. Given that a lot of legacy data assets tend to reside in these on-prem systems, it’s critical to catalog and build governance around these assets.
We had earlier created solutions for on-prem installations of PostgreSQL and Oracle which were loved by our customers and based on popular demand, we're now building support for Microsoft SQL Server on-prem databases.
Now you can ingest Microsoft SQL Server on-premise databases and see them in Atlan. This will help in solving major use cases like legacy system discovery and migration to the modern data warehouse.
You'll now find insights about saved queries and query runs, all in one place!
Saved queries: Find your most popular queries, the users who save the most queries, and track their enrichment progress!
Query runs: Track usage patterns of Insights in your organization - who uses it the most, and how often your sources are queried over time!
What's next? More widgets and filters are on the way!
Our customers have been leveraging the power of our scheduled queries to share data within their teams and across partners, but the scheduling options needed more granularity to avoid multiple queries running at the same time.
With this release, you can now:
With this new release, connection admins can enforce users to validate their credentials before viewing sample data previews, helping you enforce better governance across your organization.
Once enabled, the Sample Data view will nudge your users to set up the credentials to view the data.
When scheduling queries, it's important to stay on top of successful and failed runs.
Now, you'll get an email notification whenever a scheduled query fails, with the name of the query, so you can troubleshoot and get it running in no time.
Atlan's core objective is to create context and enable powerful data discovery by activating metadata. With this release, we're enriching our Insights query editor with metadata!
On hovering over columns and tables used in a query, users will see a popover highlighting metadata like descriptions, classifications, and owners. This popover enables all users, even those who are unfamiliar with the SQL query, to understand and get context on every data asset used.
Documenting metadata is hard. While we can't completely eliminate the process of manually documenting metadata, our Google Sheets integration will speed up the metadata documentation process for data teams.
The new integration with Google Sheets allows you to document descriptions, certifications, and announcements for columns in Google Sheets and sync it all back to Atlan with a single click.

Imagine you’re looking at a dashboard and instantly want to know who owns it and what the metric on the dashboard means. Or you want to quickly document information about the dashboards you own. How would you go about it?
Before this release, you’d have to log into Atlan, find the right dashboard through search, and then get context or add documentation.
With Atlan’s Chrome extension, you can skip all those steps by simply clicking on the Atlan icon in your browser.
It'll open up Atlan's sidebar right in your dashboard, giving you all the context you need without leaving your data tool.
It supports Looker, Tableau online, Snowflake Snowsight, Mode, and PowerBI. Support for more tools is on the way 🏡
Not only this, you can also search in Atlan with one click from any web page 🔎
