Data Governance#

Data governance in ConverSight is crucial for managing and safeguarding data effectively. This involves maintaining privacy, ensuring data quality, granting dataset access to users and assigning specific roles and responsibilities. Data Administrators hold the authority to designate roles to users. The specific process of user creation is explained earlier in User Creation.

Setting up Data Governance#

Setting up Data Governance is a crucial step in ensuring that the data stored in your system is accurate, secure and compliant with industry standards. The following steps will guide you through the process of setting up Data Governance in the ConverSight platform:

  • Go to the Data Governance section in the Data Workbench, where you can grant access to your dataset to specific users. A list of all users will be displayed on that page.

  • To restrict access to specific data, click on the Create Role option and set the desired parameters. For instance, you can limit access to only data related to only some particular columns.

How to Re–invite a user?#

If a user has missed or not responded to the initial login invitation mail within 72 hours, you can easily resend the invitation to that user again. This ensures the user receives another opportunity to access the platform without requiring any additional setup and only users with Organization Admin privileges can resend invitations.

Steps to Re-invite a User:

Resending the invitation is a quick and effective way to keep the onboarding process smooth, minimizing delays caused by missed communications. Follow these steps to Re-invite a user:

Step 1: Access the Data Workbench and select Data Governance from the menu.

Roles and Groups#

Roles
Roles regulate dataset access based on specified filters, determining the criteria data records must meet for assigned users to access the data.

Groups
Groups serve the purpose of granting access to a collection of columns within a dataset. They enable users to define sets of columns and provide access to those group of columns to designated individual users or Roles.

In the platform users can create Roles and Group through two ways, they are through:

  • Data Governance

  • Dataset Management
