Preview our latest navigation changes

The data.world enterprise catalog provides a 360-degree view of your data resources and semantics. Available in preview today, we've added quick section navigation links on the overview tab of your collection, resource, and glossary pages and separated related resources into their own, sortable, searchable views.

With this upcoming change, users will be able to scan the available metadata and get the insights needed to make decisions efficiently and effectively.


These views offer a highly organized and condensed presentation of the metadata, making it easier to quickly access and understand the information.



We'd love your feedback and thoughts before we roll them into the main UI. To see the views, please click "Turn on preview" in the banner at the top of any collection, resource, or glossary term page. To leave your feedback, please visit the help section (question mark in the lower left of the global navigation) and leave a suggestion via the support link.


You can read more about these changes in our documentation portal. If you're interested in learning more about our data discovery solutions, please visit our website and book a demo or reach out to your customer service representative today. We look forward to helping you and your teams discover your data!

Updated documentation portal

We are excited to announce upcoming improvements to our help docs portal, including streamlining and consolidating our product documentation, cleaning up deprecated articles and links, and improving the navigation and search experience!

With the site improvements, some of your bookmarks or saved links may no longer work. We have diligently mapped deprecated URLs to the new pags to keep the impact on our users as low as possible. 

If you encounter a link that no longer works, the easiest way to find what you need is to go to the docs portal landing page and search for the information. Please contact support with any questions of issues.

Preview the simplified navigation and Discover page

This May, data.world’s navigation is getting more powerful and even easier to use – we’re adding a Discover button! Preview the changes today to discover all the resources you have access to with a single click.

Metrics update: December 17, 2021

Updated metrics tables/reports have arrived on December 17, 2021! Some reports may take 24-48 hours to reflect the new data after deploy due to sync timing.

Data dictionary has been updated to reflect the latest updates as well.

Updated Tables - For both multi-tenant and single-tenant

  1. Events - Metadata Assets Activity - By Day: Column name changed from “resourceid” to “resource” - this change was applied in order to bring this table into conformity with the dimension naming convention used elsewhere in the metrics dataset.
  2. Membership - All Time List: Added “current_member” column (boolean; TRUE: account is currently provisioned; FALSE: account is currently de-provisioned). Added “last_date_active” column (the date of the user’s most recent activity in data.world).
  3. Tops - Requests: Name of table/report changed to “Tops - Most Requested Resources.” Added “resourcetype” column (dimension; indicates whether the requested resource was a dataset, group, etc.).

Coming Soon: Organization Profile Updates

The Organization Profile Page is getting a facelift this week to offer more intuitive navigation, stronger support for custom catalog types, and richer discovery features. 

Browse the Overview tab for quick links to different resource categories in your catalog. The quick link tiles will take you to a filtered presentation of the new Resources tab. This view operates much like the main search page with support for facets and advanced search syntax, all scoped to your organization's resources. 

Searching for open data? Community organizations will now also have these search and filter options available on the new Resources tab.
