Accessing governance dashboards

Governance dashboards provide visibility into catalog engagement, user behavior, and resource activity across your instance. They are designed to help governance teams and administrators monitor adoption, identify trends, and maintain transparency within the data ecosystem. These dashboards can be accessed in two ways:

  • From the Analytics (data-catalog-team) organization

  • As an Instance administrator through the Admin portal

Accessing governance dashboards from the Analytics organization

Governance dashboards are available within the Analytics (data-catalog-team) organization. This access path allows governance administrators and other authorized users to view governance insights without requiring instance administrator permissions.

To access governance dashboards from the analytics organization:

  1. Navigate to the data-catalog-team organization.

  2. On the Organization profile page, go to the Dashboards tab.

To access governance dashboards as an instance administrator:
