About the automations
Data governance teams govern large volumes of diverse data with hundreds, sometimes thousands of stakeholders. Much of that work is manual and time consuming, such as metadata enrichment and managing data access requests. The Data Governance application enables governance teams to more effectively manage tasks and engage stakeholders.
The data.world Data Governance application enables automations and automation-driven workflows. As part of the data.world Data Governance application, automations called Eureka Bots reduce the amount of manual effort needed for data governance tasks, helping to increase productivity, engagement, and trust.
data.world Data Governance Powered By Eureka Bots combines automations with data.world’s Knowledge Graph architecture to create an application that is simple, flexible, and interactive. This new application – part of data.world’s Data Catalog Platform – enables data governance teams to be more productive, customize workflow, and engage stakeholders in data governance processes.

The Data Governance application comes in two tiers.
Data Governance Core tier is included with the Standard version of the data.world Platform and includes the following single-step automations.
Metadata query-based actions (for advanced users only)
Access requests for datasets and projects (not configured from the Automations tab of Organization profile page)
Suggestions for improving resources in the catalog (not configured from the Automations tab of Organization profile page)
Data Governance Premium tier is an add-on to the Platform that augments the Core automations with multi-step workflows and task management capabilities. Customers can purchase the following additional automations to set up comprehensive workflows for access requests for resources.
How does the application work?
Automations and automation-driven workflows are both available in the Platform’s Automation gallery. Tasks can be claimed and managed from a dedicated UI. The application also includes built-in reporting to enable data governance teams to manage progress and prioritize efforts.
Important
Only Organization administrators can view, configure, and run automations.
From the Organization profile page, configure automations and automation-driven workflows using the automation templates available in the Automation templates section.
Manage the configured automations from the Automations section of the page. This section provides a breakdown of your automations, categorizing them into active automations, those that have been configured but not yet enabled, and archived automations that are no longer in use.
