Atlas metadata hooks

madhuv — Sat, 12 Mar 2016 08:44:27 GMT

Is it possible to add custom bridges / hooks to add metadata to Atlas? (Also, how does this interact with lineage tracking)

@Madhu V

You can add custom Metadata.

I had written a CLI that uses the Atlas API to do this.

The best code sample is with QuickStart.java which is part of the Atlas Code base.

Take a look at that.

There is also support for REST Calls

@Shivaji - thanks for the answer. Can you also shed a little light on part 2 (how does this interact with lineage tracking?) Also - is there any documentation on how lineage is tracked in Atlas? Thanks!
