Data Catalog Links Synchronization
A synchronization is the metadata exchange between Qualytics and the catalog over the linked assets, in two directions you choose independently. Pull brings supported catalog metadata into Qualytics, and Push sends Qualytics metadata to the catalog. Exactly what each direction exchanges depends on the catalog; every catalog's own page documents its supported asset types and outputs in its Synchronization section, listed under Supported Data Catalogs.
Two Scopes
The synchronization comes in two scopes:
| Scope | Started from | Covers | Requires |
|---|---|---|---|
| Datastore-scoped | The datastore's Data Catalog Links dialog | The linked assets of one datastore | The Editor team permission on the datastore |
| Full | The integration's entry under Settings > Integrations | Every datastore of the integration | The Manager or Admin role |
The datastore-scoped synchronization is the fastest way to see a corrected link take effect without waiting for the next integration-wide run. Either way, progress and results are reported on the integration's entry under Settings > Integrations.
Containers and fields do not start synchronizations. The scope is the datastore, so their dialogs point you to it.
See Synchronization Options for the integration-wide options, and the sync how-to for the step-by-step from the dialog.
