New features and changes

  • Amazon S3 Collector: The new Amazon S3 collector harvests metadata about buckets and objects, including the Region, Version State, Size, Last Modified Data, ACL Owner, Grantee and Grant Permission, amongst others. See all the details about this collector in  this documentation.

  • BigQuery collector enhancements:

    • You can now harvest column-level lineage between views and tables, as well as more metadata about datasets, projects, tables, and views.

    • The collector now provide an option to do a test run to validate that the collector can authenticate to the specified source system. This is done by adding the --dry-run parameter while running the collector. If specified, the collector does not actually harvest any metadata, but just checks the connection parameters provided by the user and reports success or failure at connecting.

Bug fixes

  • Postgres, Snowflake, Redshift, Microsoft SQL Server collectors: When parsing view definition SQL to harvest column-level lineage, the collectors now correctly parse SQL in which tables are fully qualified in the FROM clause but not in the SELECT clause.

  • Power BI collector: The Power BI collector has changed the URL used as the dwec:externalUrl property from Power BI's embedUrl to Power BI's webUrl, which now allows the user to open the Report, Dashboard, or Dataset in a browser. Additionally, the collector now harvests the embedUrl from Power BI as a separate property, kos:embedUrl.

  • Snowflake Collector: The collector now handles scenario when Snowflake JDBC driver does not provide valid default values for certain database columns.

New collectors

  • The Grafana collector is now available as a private beta release for select customers. Please contact data.world if you are interested in using this collector.

New features and changes

  • The following additional collectors now provide an option to do a test run for the collectors to validate that the collector can authenticate to the specified source system. This is done by adding the --dry-run parameter while running the collector. If specified, the collector does not actually harvest any metadata, but just checks the connection parameters provided by the user and reports success or failure at connecting.

    • Power BI

  • Catalog graphs (.ttl files) that are automatically uploaded to the data.world platform with -u / --upload are now compressed, enabling larger graphs to be uploaded.

  • Power BI collector: The collector now provides a new option --disable-expression-lineage to skip parsing lineage from the source expressions.

  • Snowflake collector: The collector has a new ability to harvest table usage and query count. This functionality is enabled by passing --table-usage-collection. It calculates, for each table in the database being harvested, the percentage of tables in the database that have been queried no fewer times than the subject table. The time period over which this analysis is performed is controlled with option --table-usage-lookback-days (that is, the number of days prior to the time when the collector is being run during which queries of each table are tallied), which defaults to a value of 7.

Bug fixes

  • Snowflake collector: Fixed an issue with SQL parsing in Snowflake for windowed aggregate functions.

  • Power BI collector: Fixed an issue with the Power BI expression parsing related to joins in source expressions.

  • Looker collector: Fixed an issue in the Looker collector that caused an abnormal termination of the collector run with certain Looker views.

Digest: fa9ae2eb3d68375a3ff01ac7bde98fd36f372b84dce0d411444146ea9566b47b

  • With this release the Athena collector is no longer a JDBC collector--we harvest metadata by accessing the Athena API directly, rather than going through a JDBC driver. This means that it is no longer necessary to provide a JDBC driver when running the collector.

1-10-22 the data.world Collectorv2.65

Digest: ed08cdd21a374c30456de0989076f5180bc4187ca998358b051807e521fd44e6

  • This release adds a new option for the MANTA collector, --manta-max-parallel-scenarios. Specifying this option and passing an integer value will configure the MANTA API to export the specified number of scenarios in the MANTA graph in parallel. The default value is 4; adjusting this up or down can improve performance.

1-5-22 DWCv2.64

Digest: 45b72798b0602885790388331a75db1f4286b15bf57b21f30f416eda79041571

  • The Athena JDBC driver is no longer bundled with the data.world Collector as we have discovered that the Athena driver itself has a dependency on a vulnerable version of log4j. Customers that use the the data.world Collector Athena collector will now need to supply their own driver and put it in the jdbc driver directory (as is done with other collectors for which we don’t distribute a driver).

12-15-21 the data.world Collectorv2.62

  • Updated the BigQuery collector to support current Google Cloud API enhancements.

  • Added a new Information Schema Collector. This collector runs via the {{catalog-information-schema}} command and is notably cataloging four CSV files that are provided to the collector via a {{--csv-file-directory}} parameter rather than connecting to a database. This collector is an option for customers with tricky DB setups that do not allow them to authenticate or establish connections to their DB via our normal the data.world Collector collectors.

12-2-21 the data.world Collectorv2.59

Digest: sha256:051f76748be1c6cf2c7557600dde71a39e1b822c9e49120881ce938f1c8c2b80

  • Verified the Manta collector works with MANTA R34.

  • Released the config file command.

  • Modified the Tableau collector to remove schema and database names from table names.

  • Updated the BigQuery collector to support cataloging all datasets in a project at once by default, and to be able to use cli options to select specific datasets in a project as well. With this last change, the  --dataset param is no longer required. The help text has been updated with new messaging to reflect these changes.

  • Added a new collector for Hive (as an alternative to catalog-hive) that uses only the Hive metastore--it does not connect to the Hive server directly. 

  • The PowerBI collector now harvests workspaces and identifies other assets as being in workspaces

  • the data.world Collector now emits “catalog events” into the catalog graph. These capture details about the cataloging process itself, including selected configuration options with which the Collector was run, and summary statistics about the catalog. The ingest process will soon extract this information from catalogs at ingest time and send them to segment for downstream analysis.

  • Enhancements to domo collector output

  • Testing improvements

  • A minor tableau collector enhancement

  • Fix for an issue in the tableau collector in which column fields were sometimes not properly identifying the Tableau Table from which they sourced their data

  • Improvment to the presentation of domo catalogs in the platform UI.

  • Changes to the dockerhub repository where we house images containing non-released versions of the data.world Collector. Previously we were calling these “beta” releases; we now call them “release candidates”. The new repository is datadotworld/dwcc-rc and the image tags are x.y-rc-z where x.y is the next expected Collector release, and z is an increment.

the data.world Collector v2.33 Adds support for harvesting intra-database lineage from manta scans, and accommodates changes in MANTA R32 (aka 1.32). We no longer support MANTA versions earlier than MANTA R32.

the data.world Collector v2.32 This release adds in collector support for Vertica db.

the data.world Collector v2.31 Issued fix to ensure alignment of identifiers for databases referenced by Tableau and Looker collectors.

the data.world Collector v2.30 Installed a config file-driven configuration (as a hidden feature for now). Issued a fix for handling empty powerbi objects returned by the API

the data.world Collector v2.29 The data.world catalog collector now supports Tableau Online! Additionally there was a bugfix for PowerBi.

the data.world Collector v2.28 Bugfix release

the data.world Collector v 2.27 Added the optional CLI option tableau-graphql-page-size to the Tableau collector which allows the user to set a number of objects to be included in each page of paginated queries.

the data.world Collector v2.26 Updated the PowerBi collector so that if a report is unavailable via the API it will be logged, and cataloging will continue on the rest of the repository.

the data.world Collector v2.25 This release includes better and more user-friendly error handling and reporting. We have also added an enhanced collection of Tableau metadata via the Tableau Metadata API (graphql endpoint). New metadata includes data sources, databases, fields, metrics, and many more inter-object relationships.

the data.world Collector v2.24 the data.world Collector is now distributed via Dockerhub Additionally there are changes to the Tableau and PowerBI collectors, and the ability to change the level of error messages written to the console and log file, and a new subcommand to display the the data.world Collector license text.

For Tableau:

  • The Tableau collector now emits RDF in which the object of `dct:creator` is a `dwec:Agent` instead of a string literal. This means we write additional details about the Tableau account that created the dashboard, via properties of the `dwec:Agent` resource. These details include: account name, account “full name”, and account email address (if they are populated in Tableau).

For PowerBI:

  • The PowerBI collector writes resources representing powerbi “data sources” that are now of a PowerBI-specific class, rather than `dwec:DataArtifact`.

Logging changes:

  • It is now possible for users to set the level (severity) of log messages written to the console and log file. By default, we write “info” level messages; users can choose to write only errors (level=“ERROR”), errors+warnings (level=“WARN”), or all messages including debug trace (level=“DEBUG”). This is useful if we want to have customers run the data.world Collector with debug logging turned on, for troubleshooting problems etc.

Display the data.world Collector license information:

  • License information for the data.world Collector is now available as a subcommand of the data.world Collector. To get all licensing information, run the command docker run -it --rm datadotworld/dwcc:X.XX display-license where X.XX is a version of the data.world Collector greater than or equal to 2.24.

the data.world Collector v2.23 Internal release

the data.world Collector v2.22 Internal release

the data.world Collector v2.21 fixed some timeout issues with Looker collector when fetching images from the Looker API. Fixed an issue with cataloging reports and dashboards based on user workspace permissions in PowerBi.

the data.world Collector v2.20 With this release our Tableau collector now supports cataloging of workbooks and non-dashboard views as well as harvesting tags on workbooks and views. FIxed an issue in the Looker collector where preview images returned from looker api were missing.

the data.world Collector v2.19 Includes a clean-up of the embedded help commands for several collectors and:

  • Fixes an issue with the Tableau Server collector when cataloging multi-site server instances.

  • Adds --tableau-site parameter to enable user to restrict cataloging to a single site (not required, by default all sites in the instance are scanned). Value provided to --tableau-site can be a site ID or name.

the data.world Collector v2.18 The tableau collector now has a flag option --tableau-skip-images which skips the harvesting of preview images for views. Usage is like this:

... catalog-tableau --tableau-api-base-url=http://ec2-44-192-86-11.compute-1.amazonaws.com/api/3.10/ --tableau-username=admin --tableau-password=password -a sc-test3 -n tableau-test --tableau-skip-images

the data.world Collector v2.17 Adds a collector for Presto

the data.world Collector v2.16 This release:

  • Adds the parameter --all-databases to the Athena collector so that it can catalog all the databases accessible from the logged-in account.

  • Fixes some issues with datatypes for dwec:externalUrl predicates.

the data.world Collector v2.15 This release contains the following:

  • The Tableau collector formerly had a CLI parameter --tableau-project-id which could be used to catalog only assets in the project with the specified ID. The parameter is now --tableau-project and takes either a project ID or project name

  • Update to the MANTA collector to accommodate a minor change in the MANTA API with v 1.31. Customers who have updated their MANTA instance to v 1.31+ will want to use the data.world Collector 2.15+.

  • The Looker collector now works for non-admin Looker users; however, when the data.world Collector is run by a non-admin, the emitted catalog will not contain any information about databases used by Looker analysis assets (access to database information in Looker requires admin permissions).

  • All JDBC collectors now populate two new properties for dwec:DatabaseColumndwec:columnDefaultValue  and dwec:columnIsNullable, which contain the default value for that column in newly inserted rows, and whether the column can be null, respectively. (Note that only some databases/drivers provide this metadata…we put it in the catalog if it’s there).

the data.world Collector v2.14 Adds a collector for Looker. Minor update to the docker-save.sh script that includes available versions in the error message if you don’t supply a version.

the data.world Collector v2.13 Adds cli params with this version so it now possible to pass arbitrary driver properties through to the connection

the data.world Collector v2.12 Adds collector for SAP (formerly Sybase) SQL Anywhere metadata collector

the data.world Collector v2.11 Improves the Dremio collector’s handling of data sources nested within multiple layers of folders, and fixed a minor issue with the Dremio collector’s harvesting of lineage metadata from the Dremio graph API.

the data.world Collector v2.10 Adds a collector for Domo and JDBC database collectors can now catalog all schemas in the database at once (default remains to catalog only user's default schema).
