We have a deep bi-directional integration with Atlan, which helps customers manage their data without requiring a duplication of effort across the Atlan and SYNQ platforms. The integration lets you define data products and ownership in a single location (Atlan) while adding relevant monitoring and alerting rules to the data products (SYNQ). The resulting quality score is visible to users on either platform, making the entire ecosystem transparent and seamless.
Reach out to the SYNQ team to enable Atlan integration for your workspace.
Once enabled, you can add an Atlan integration from the Integrations tab on the Settings page. title You then need to add the following information:
  1. Tenant URL - This is the URL you use to access Atlan (eg. https://<your-org>.atlan.com)
  2. API token - Generated as following.
To generate the API token, head over to Atlan.
  • In Governance > Personas , create a new persona. Name it something indicative like SYNQ API Access.
    • Within the persona, create the following policies:
      • Domain Policy with Read permission for domains. You can choose All Domains or cherry pick the ones you want to be visible on SYNQ.
      • Metadata Policy for each connection that you want to be visible on SYNQ. Choose the permission Assets -> Read
  • In Admin > API Tokens create a new API token. Name it something indicative like SYNQ
    • Choose Expiry Never
    • Add the persona you just created in the step above (SYNQ API Access)
    • Download or copy the API token that you see.
Enter the Tenant URl and API token in the corresponding section of the Atlan integration on SYNQ. title If the URL and Token are valid you will be able to proceed to the next steps.
  1. Map supported SYNQ integrations with Atlan connections.
  2. Choose which Atlan assets to synchronize.
The Atlan integration synchronizes every 30 minutes and performs a full catalog sync along with the domains, dataproducts and owners you selected. You can easily identify the assets pulled from Atlan by the logo next to them. title You can enhance the Owners with your monitoring and alerting preferences. title Reach out in our shared Slack channel for any assistance you might need with your Atlan integration.
