What is a data share?
Analytics is now Insights
All of the Analytics capabilities of the app remain unchanged. You can continue using your existing dashboards, charts, and smart links alongside the new Rovo-powered features. These features combine work and data context to provide reliable answers, create a shared understanding of data, and build dashboards that your team can depend on.
Data shares aren’t available in the Atlassian Government environment.
A data share is a read-only collection of tables with your organization’s data from the Atlassian Data Lake. Organization admins can create data shares and credentials for those data shares in Analytics. Those credentials can then be used to connect the data share to your organization’s environments or third-party tools that support Databricks Delta Sharing protocol. Learn more about Delta Sharing.
For example, data shares can enable you to:
Connect your Atlassian data to your business intelligence tools
Export your Atlassian data into your own databases
Data permissions for data shares
Similar to Data Lake connections you create in the Analytics app, the data permissions for data shares are not the same as the permissions you’ve set in your other Atlassian apps.
If you connect a data share directly to your own third-party tools, all the app data you’ve included in that data share will be available to anyone who has access to that data share connection. This further means people in your organization may see data they normally don’t have access to.
If you want to apply your own data permissions or transformations to a data share, you’ll need to set up this configuration outside of Analytics. Read how to set up this configuration for data shares.
