Introducing Data Governance Reports APIs
We've added APIs for Data Governance reports in our common reporting framework in addition to the reports on our cloud platform user interface. Now, as per your requirements, you can quickly get report data.
You can build integrations to obtain specific data for various use cases. For example, you can:
Track the status of workloads periodically and trigger automated responses using third-party apps or custom scripts. For example, you can create a ticket to inform an administrator if there’s a file that violates your company’s compliance policies.
Keep a close eye on critical activities such as compliance violations. This visibility allows you to proactively address any issues that may arise.
Run narrowed-down diagnostics using filters to provide evidence during audits.
Build personalized reports or a view to monitor all your data.
With these new APIs, you'll have more flexibility and control over your reporting.
