Stream query results for faster insights

🎉 What's new

We are excited to announce that Atlan now supports streaming query results. When querying in Insights, query results will arrive in batches as soon as they are fetched from the source. This means you no longer have to wait for the query run to be completed to view results!

Why should you be excited?

  • Streaming query results can help fetch data faster from the source.
  • Results will be shown in batches — get the popcorn ready!
  • You can also cancel the query as the results are streaming in if you accidentally started it — giving you more control.

👏 Give it a shot

Ever experienced long wait times for query results? This one's for you! With streaming query results, get helpful insights more quickly in Atlan.

Upgrades to guest user role

🎉 What's new

This one goes out to our guest users in Atlan — you will now be able to raise requests, share assets on Slack, and create and assign Jira tickets! We've expanded the range of capabilities of our guest users, empowering them to collaborate more meaningfully.

The following new capabilities are supported for our guest users:

  • Raise requests: Once enabled by admins, guest users will be able to raise requests for metadata updates on assets. Guest users will no longer be able to make asset updates through personas, purposes, or policies.
  • Raise Jira tickets: Guest users will be able to create and link Jira tickets in Atlan — making it easier to report issues or ask questions about assets.
  • Share assets on Slack: Guest users will be able to share assets over Slack — improving communication between teams.

👏 Give it a shot

For all our guest users out there, feel empowered to do more in Atlan with these new upgrades. Let us know what you think!

Discover dbt sources in Atlan!

🎉 What's new

We're excited to announce that Atlan now supports dbt sources! With this release, you can discover and document sources for your dbt assets in Atlan. 

Here's what you can do:

  • Discover dbt sources and source metadata for materialized tables in Atlan — you can either crawl dbt or wait for the next automated sync to view them. 
  • Document dbt source metadata and use Atlan as a single source of discovery for all your dbt assets.

Currently, dbt source metadata is only supported for table assets.

👏 Give it a shot

From discovering to documenting dbt sources, there is so much for you to check out! Also, keep an eye out for upcoming enhancements — dbt source metadata for column assets, and lineage and additional metadata like freshness status for dbt sources.

New resource metrics and filter

🎉 What's new

Resources can often serve as critical metadata for your assets in Atlan. We hear you, and now present to you two new enhancements: resource metrics for your assets in the reporting center and a resources filter for asset discovery and reporting!

Resource metrics in the reporting center

The assets dashboard in the reporting center now allows you to track resource metrics for your assets. Track resource coverage for all your assets or use the resources filter to find assets without resources and focus on enriching them.

Resources filter for asset discovery

With the new resources filter, you can easily filter for and discover assets with or without resources. For example, use the new Has resources filter to find verified tables without resources and get cracking on your documentation goals! 

Explore these enhancements and let us know what you think!

Limit asset visibility and discovery

🎉 What's new

Atlan now empowers admin users to control asset visibility based on access control policies. Admin users can limit asset visibility for their member and guest users in Atlan, ensuring a more robust data governance setup.

✨ Let's dig deeper

As an admin user, you can simply turn off the default visibility for all assets, so that your member and guest users can only view assets curated for their personas and purposes in Atlan. Admin users will still have full access to all assets.

But what does this mean for member and guest users? For example, with asset visibility restricted, a guest user in a Data Analyst persona will only be able to:

  • Search, discover, and view details of the assets curated for the Data Analyst persona.
  • View all assets in the lineage graph, with access restricted to asset details in the sidebar.

Turning off the default visibility for all assets currently does not apply to Insights and glossaries.

👏 Give it a shot

Lead the charge on data governance with asset visibility and discovery curated for your teams. Let us know what you think!

A new way to share feedback for search

🎉 What's new

Your feedback is really important to us, so we created a button for it! The new Give feedback button makes sharing feedback on your search experience in Atlan that much easier. 

✨ Let's dig deeper
