Connect to your Collibra environment

For a more integrated experience, configure your Collibra environment in Collibra Command Line Interface.

collibra-set -url https://https://<your_dgc_environment_url>

This allows the tool to use the version of your environment to download the Collibra API dependencies or to check the workflow incompatibilities for that environment.

Connect to a test or development environment and not to a production one. Use the migration tool to port the changes to your production environment.

The officially supported Collibra version is 5.7. Older versions might lead to unexpected behavior.
