Data Catalog Attribute Descriptions

note

IT Visibility is being upgraded with the introduction of Technology Intelligence Platform beginning in September 2024. Flexera will contact you directly regarding the timeframe of your upgrade. With Technology Intelligence Platform, out-of-the-box IT Visibility dashboards are being replaced with new, enhanced IT Visibility Technology Intelligence Platform reports. For more information, see IT Visibility With Technology Intelligence Platform Reports.

Your current custom and out-of-the-box dashboards will remain available for 6 weeks after your organization has been upgraded to Technology Intelligence Platform. During this time frame, you will be able to recreate your custom views in the new reporting capability. At the end of this time frame, access to all previous IT Visibility dashboarding capabilities will be removed.

In Data Explorer (IT Visibility > Dashboard > Data Explorer) , you can customize the datasets for your visualizations by dragging attributes from the Data Catalog into the active drop zone on the canvas. The following tables provide attribute descriptions to help with your selection.

• Business Services Applications

• Business Services Assets

• Business Services Dependent Applications
