OVERVIEW
This bridge generates a business glossary representation in comma separated value (CSV) format of the input model.
The business glossary model is composed of Terms organized in Category folders.
The generated file also contains information about the object(s) in the source model, for which a glossary term was created.
The generated file can be edited in a text editor, or in a spreadsheet application before being loaded into a business glossary management tool.

Bridge Parameters
| Parameter Name | Description | Type | Values | Default | Scope | ||
| File | Specify the output file where to save the generated glossary. | FILE |
|
Mandatory | |||
| Skip physical relational objects | Specify whether to ignore physical relational objects (Tables, Columns) when generating Terms. 'True' Physical relational objects are ignored. 'False' Physical relational objects are considered when generating Terms. |
BOOLEAN |
|
True | |||
| Skip physical relational objects with no description | Specify whether to ignore physical relational objects (Tables, Columns) with no description when generating Terms. 'True' Physical relational objects with no description are ignored. 'False' Physical relational objects with no description are considered when generating Terms. |
BOOLEAN |
|
True | |||
| Skip hidden objects | Specify whether to ignore hidden objects when generating Terms. 'True' Hidden objects are ignored. 'False' Hidden objects are considered when generating Terms. |
BOOLEAN |
|
False | |||
| Case sensitive | Specify whether to use case sensitive comparison when generating Terms. If several objects in different models have the same name and path, it makes sense to generate a single Term for them. The unification of such shared Terms is based on name and path comparison, in case sensitive or insensitive fashion. The case sensitive criteria is also applied when comparing object(s) descriptions, to compute the term description. 'True' Compare in case sensitive fashion. 'False' Compare in case insensitive fashion. |
BOOLEAN |
|
True | |||
| Merge identically named terms | Specify whether to merge identically named terms across models. 'True' Identically named terms across models are merged into a single glossary term. 'False' Identically named terms across models are not merged, multiple terms are generated in the glossary. |
BOOLEAN |
|
True |
