Making the Connection with Collibra
When connecting to Collibra from Team Server, users may experience issues due to network restrictions, firewalls, certificates, etc. That proves hard for Technical Support to quickly identify the issue preventing the connection and help you get back on track.
The Collibra Test Connection button performs and then displays the results of the following tests:
- Perform an http GET on a known working endpoint.
- Test for the existence of a Proxy Server and whether if needs authentication.
- Test for the existence of a Team Server keystore file.
- Ping the Collibra server.
- Ping from the Team Server to Collibra server to check whether it is reachable.
- Make an http request to Collibra and log the response.
- Check the same endpoint from the backend.
- Test the username and password.
- Test the https certificate
- Test performance
The resulting detailed errors and responses received from Collibra for the above calls are collected in the collibra.log file.
