We're leaving repetitive, habitual tasks in 2023... will you join us?

Simplify your workflow and update metadata at scale with Automations.

Like Zapier for your metadata, run workflows to update PII, set schema change alerts, tag columns based on specific keywords, and so much more.

Automations are here, and you can be the first to try them in your Secoda workspace.

📚 Catalog Page Updates

Enter the new year with a refreshed look for your Catalog. We've made design changes to the Catalog page to streamline your workflow.

📘 A single, streamlined view

The tab view at the top of the Catalog page has been replaced by a single view that can be filtered by Resource type. See exactly what you need in a simplified interface.

🔍 Exporting catalog views

We've made exporting your data easier. You can now apply filters in the Catalog and export the specified subset of data, saving you time and effort.
