Atlan is an active metadata platform that centralizes data discovery, governance, and collaboration. By integrating Prizm with Atlan, data quality scores, observability signals, and lineage computed by Prizm are automatically surfaced inside Atlan assets — keeping your catalog enriched without manual effort.

Prerequisites

  • Atlan workspace with API access enabled
  • Atlan Personal Access Token (PAT) or service account token with assets:read and assets:write permissions
  • Prizm instance reachable from the Atlan webhook endpoint (or Prizm configured to push to Atlan)

Connect Prizm to Atlan

  1. In Prizm, go to Settings → Integrations and click Add Integration.
  2. Select Atlan from the catalog integrations list.
  3. Enter your Atlan Workspace URL (e.g., https://your-org.atlan.com).
  4. Paste your API Token (Personal Access Token from Atlan → API Keys).
  5. Click Test Connection to validate.
  6. Click Save.
FieldDescription
Workspace URLBase URL of your Atlan instance (no trailing slash)
API TokenAtlan PAT or service account token with asset read/write
Sync IntervalHow often Prizm pushes updates to Atlan (default: hourly)

Lineage Sync

Once connected, Prizm writes column-level and table-level lineage computed from your connectors into corresponding Atlan assets. Lineage is matched by asset qualified name.
Prizm lineage sync is additive — it does not overwrite lineage already defined in Atlan from other sources (e.g., dbt, Fivetran).

Active Metadata Propagation

Prizm pushes the following metadata to Atlan assets on each sync:
MetadataDescription
Data Quality ScoreComposite score (0-100) for each table/column
Anomaly AlertsOpen anomaly incidents linked to the asset
Freshness StatusLast observed data update timestamp
Row CountLatest row count from Prizm observability jobs
Null RateNull percentage per column
