About this tag
The atlan tag on WindowsForum.com collects discussion of Atlan's data governance and catalog work, particularly its Microsoft Fabric connector. Coverage explains how the generally available connector catalogs Fabric assets and maps lineage, and what Scanner API permissions are required to make that work.
