Top Tips for Data Owners
A Data Owner can be anyone that is accountable for the collection, handling, and use of a data product. This can be anyone from the Product manager of the application that generated the data, to the Business lead that owns the entire data domain.
As an Owner, you can use K to manage your data product, see who is using your data products, and run reports on unused access.
Check that you have the right profile set up in K
The easiest way to check if you have the right profile set up in K is to check your Profile Settings. Once you are assigned as a Data Owner or Data Steward, these two profiles will be automatically added to your role.
If Ownership does not appear it may because you are not currently assigned any data assets.
Tailored Data Owner and Steward Dashboards
You can use your Data Owner Dashboard to review all of the data items that have been tagged to yourself as a Data Owner.
Use the Usage report to see who is using your data assets
Through Ask K you can access a range of Data Usage related self-service extracts.
Click on K Applications in the menu bar
Click on Ask K

Understand how your data asset has changed over time
On the Data Profile, through the Changes Tab you can view all historical changes that have been detected by K.
