Shape the future of IBM!

We invite you to shape the future of IBM, including product roadmaps, by submitting ideas that matter to you the most. Here's how it works:

Post your ideas

Post ideas and requests to enhance a product or service. Take a look at ideas others have posted and upvote them if they matter to you,

  1. Post an idea

  2. Upvote ideas that matter most to you

  3. Get feedback from the IBM team to refine your idea

Help IBM prioritize your ideas and requests

The IBM team may need your help to refine the ideas so they may ask for more information or feedback. The product management team will then decide if they can begin working on your idea. If they can start during the next development cycle, they will put the idea on the priority list. Each team at IBM works on a different schedule, where some ideas can be implemented right away, others may be placed on a different schedule.

Receive notification on the decision

Some ideas can be implemented at IBM, while others may not fit within the development plans for the product. In either case, the team will let you know as soon as possible. In some cases, we may be able to find alternatives for ideas which cannot be implemented in a reasonable time.

RELATED IDEAS

Governance Artifacts search in WKC Categories should include Governance Artifakts from Subcategories

Consider the following Example: There is a Category "Driving Vehicles" with 2 subcategories (at the same level): "Automobile" and "Bicycle". Furthermore there is a Business Term "VW Beetle", categorized as "Automobile". Currently, within the section Organize->Data & AI Governance->Categories, I can select the "Driving Vehicles" Category and use the "search Categories" field in order to perform a search throughout all governance artifacts belonging to that category. However, Subcategories are not included in that search. If I search for "VW Beetle" in the "Driving Vehicles" category, there would not be a result. This is inconvenient.

The categories section is the only section that offers the possibilty to build well structured glossary areas. Users should be able to include sublevels when searching those glossary areas. Global search is not as convenient as this suggestions, since users cannot restrict their search to selected categories in global search.

    Hi Susanna, yes that is the equivalent v3.5 screen regarding the topic I was referring to. My preferred option would be checkbox where users can opt in to include subcategories of the current category into the "find governance artifacts" search. In global search I cannot search within a subset of governance artifacts that belong to the same category.

    Kind regards,

    Adrian

    Hi Adrian, thank you for submitting your feedback on the category screen. Can you clarify that you're referring to this screen below (v3.5), and the request is for the "Find governance artifacts" field to search into sub-categories as well?


    If so, the current design on this page and on the "Find categories" or "Find governance artifacts" are local finds, i.e. "Find" only looks for matches within the list of what has already been fetched.

    For the type of search you're after, I was thinking the global search would be the place, but you already indicated that the global search is not as efficient.

    However, I can see how some users will have the need to be able to expand the "find" to include a search for term (or governance artifacts) in sub-categories too on this UI.

    We'll have the design team evaluate your suggestion as well.

    Regards,

    Susanna Tai
