Talend Cloud Data Catalog and Talend Data Catalog Bridges
New features and improvements
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| Google Cloud Data Fusion | New Google Cloud Data Fusion bridge available. |
| Microsoft Azure Data Factory (ADF) | Added categories for improved metadata organization. |
| Snowflake Database (via JDBC) | Enhanced with log messages when the bridge cannot extract a view definition or procedure body due to insufficient permissions. |
| Microsoft Azure Data Factory (ADF) | Updated bridge profile with group names and icons. |
| Microsoft Azure Power BI | Added support for Domains and Capacities. WARNING: This changes the Power BI metamodel (profile). A full re-import is required instead of incremental harvesting. OEM partners must update their repository metamodel for Power BI imports. |
| TIBCO Spotfire Server | Modified to enable downloading libraries even when server URL parameter is not specified. |
| Third Party Software | Resolved error about required bridge parameter when pre-downloading Maven drivers using MIMB executable. |
| Oracle (via JDBC) | Added support for Transport Layer Security (TLS) with Oracle Wallet by loading required JAR files. |
| Microsoft Azure Power BI | Renamed profile entity "Dataset" to "Semantic Model" and groups/links
"Datasets" to "Semantic Models". Enhanced Dataset profile to display relationships, hierarchies, and calculated tables. Updated profile icons. |
| Microsoft Azure Power BI | Enhanced Dataset profile to display relationships, hierarchies, and
calculated tables. Improved permissions and documentation. Enhanced Semantic Model support by downloading detailed TMSL metadata using new Fabric APIs. Added subsetting option -semantic.model. Improved error handling for asynchronous workspace scan tasks. WARNING: This changes the Power BI metamodel (profile). A full re-import is required instead of incremental harvesting. OEM partners must update their repository metamodel for Power BI imports. |
Notable fixes
| Issue | Description |
|---|---|
| IBM Cognos | Improved report type metadata across multiple Cognos bridges. Content Manager ReportStudio and QueryStudio: Propagated Content.NativeType property to Model.NativeType and Report (layout) objects. Content Manager QueryStudio: For Dashboard reports, the layout type now sets the Report NativeType. Enhanced NativeId and NativeType properties and added UI Report Type property. Enabled Maven library download. Packages: Regenerated profiles with datatypes. Removed NativeType conditions from ReportStudio and DataSet profiles. Renamed FM profile entities. Added group names. |
| MicroStrategy | Resolved inconsistency where DesignPackage lacked a parent. The bridge now retains "System Objects" and "Managed by the system" folders even if excluded via the -folders.exclude parameter, as these folders contain Warehouse tables required for database connections. |
| Erwin Data Modeler export | Fixed comparison method violation by correcting attribute sorting by logical position. |
| Microsoft Azure Data Factory (ADF) | Enhanced documentation with authentication requirements for Azure AD
Application (Service Principal). Documentation now includes steps for registering the Azure AD Application with required Client ID, Client Secret, and Tenant ID. Added guidance for assigning RBAC permissions (Reader or Data Factory Reader role) to the Service Principal for metadata extraction. |
| Microsoft Azure Data Factory (ADF) | Enhanced inline dataset and mapping method support. Improved join type and condition processing. |
| OpenAPI Specification (OAS) | Resolved NullPointerException when an array-typed field had an empty array as its default value. |
| Microsoft SQL Server (via JDBC) | Fixed filter handling to correctly combine inclusion and exclusion rules for schemas and tables. Resolved issue when filter contains multiple options with NOT. |
| SAP BusinessObjects Repository XI | Applied tentative fix for NullPointerException and improved documentation. |
| Microsoft Azure Data Factory (ADF) | Corrected connection object type mismatch that caused fatal bridge error "The Model is not consistent". |
| Microsoft Azure Power BI | Resolved NullPointerException when importing Dataset with
SSASSource. Fixed regression in semantic model connection processing. Applied bug fix for semantic models defined as reference without model.bim. |
| Apache Kafka | Implemented main loop delay and quota consumption control for rate-limited APIs. Added Miscellaneous parameters: -consumer.loop.delay and -consumer.messages.limit. |
| IBM Cognos Data Module | Resolved missing link for Data Module. Added support for Union-like operations. Improved support for QueryItem split definitions and diagram layout. Enabled Maven library download. |
| SAP HANA Database (via JDBC) | Corrected lineage for calculation views with star joins and shared dimensions. Fixed conditional lineage for calculation views with star joins. |
| Microsoft Azure Data Factory (ADF) | Resolved IllegalStateException fatal bridge error. Enhanced parameter support for array values. Added basic support for inline datasets. Improved metadata processing to handle missing parts with warnings for unsupported formats. |
| Snowflake (via JDBC) | Corrected lineage for conditions in classic diagram for semantic views by fixing selected items control flow link detection. |
| Snowflake (via JDBC) | Resolved JDBC driver internal error related to log file locking. Fixed IllegalArgumentException in semantic view parser. Redirected log messages from Snowflake to SLF4J to MIRLogger. Added dependency on SLF4J libraries from Maven. Removed previous code setting driver option tracing=WARNING. |
| SAP BusinessObjects Designer | Added support for slash comments in Sybase IQ queries in the BO Designer lexer. |
