Manage Unified Catalog with the data governance admin role
The data governance admin role allows you to manage the data governance settings that apply to Microsoft Purview Unified Catalog in one place. Users who hold the data governance administrator role can set Unified Catalog roles and permissions and configure self-service analytics (preview).
To use the data governance admin experience, you need to be in the tenant-level data governance admin role.
You can use the data governance admin experience in the Microsoft Purview portal.
- In the Microsoft Purview portal, select Settings.
- Under Solution settings, select Unified Catalog.
- On the left you can see the menu for roles and permissions and self service analytics.
The roles and permissions item has moved from the Unified Catalog solution to the solution settings, but the steps for applying those permissions are still the same. For more information about setting up roles and permissions for your users, see the data governance permissions documentation.
Self-service analytics and insights are data, tools, and platforms that enable business users to access, analyze, and generate insights from data independently by bringing their own tools and compute. For details on how to use this feature, see self-service analytics and insights.
Data governance admin users can understand and adjust the usage settings available for Unified Catalog in this experience. The Data Health Management SKU can be changed for Data Quality jobs, and Data Quality Monitoring can be used to monitor and understand the effect on processing. In the rare event of capacity not being available for a higher SKU, a basic SKU will be defaulted to. Learn more about Microsoft Purview pricing concepts.
