Qlik Cloud Introduces Business Glossary!

[Katie_Davis]

Business Glossary is now available as part of your existing Qlik Cloud Analytics subscription.  

This allows data steward to create and maintain a repository of business terms' definitions and descriptions. 

Qlik Business Glossary will: 

• Ensure that everyone in the organization speaks the same language. 
• Streamline data-based decisions.
• Simplify regulatory compliance.

How to start using the feature:

Business Glossary is available as part of your existing Qlik Cloud Analytics subscription, so you can start using it now!

1. Assign the steward role to a user who will define and manage business terms.
2. Create and configure a business glossary from your analytics space.
3. Populate and organize your business glossary with terms and categories.

Please note: It is also possible to import existing glossaries from an exported glossary or from a different system glossary such as Atlas or Atlan.

Hi this is a great feature. Is there a way to - starting from within an app - to access a specific Term as defined in the glossary. Would be helpful to provide context sensitive info for the user.

Thanks,

Wim Donckers

Nice feature.

I can smell a centralized master catalog (for the dimensions, measures and master visualizations) is cooking in the Qlik oven

Nice feature!
It would be nice to add screenshots to a certain term.

Hello @rlesage 

Great idea!

I recommend posting it as an idea in our ideation section so our product team can take it onboard.

All the best,

Hi @Katie_Davis  Our “Master Glossary” is in the public collection “Qlik Learning" but somhow it has been removed from collection.

we were unable to locate any user tracking information related to master glossary removal or addition from collections details within event and event type of the log of Qlik Sense SaaS.

is there any way to track the user who removed the public master glossary in qliksense saas ?

@Sudhakar1523 have you tried to Qlik CLI and the Audit Archive calls? 

This may help in fetching the logs for that day and narrowing down to the specific event.
