How to request access to a data product

If you discover a data product in the catalog that you would like to access, you can request access directly through Microsoft Purview. The request triggers a workflow that requests that the owners of the data resource grant you access to the data product.

This article outlines how to make an access request.

1. To find a data product, search or browse for it in the data catalog.

2. Select the data product to open the data product details page.

3. Select the Request access button.

4. Fill in the form. The form is different depending on your organization and the data product, but provide all information.

5. Select Send when you're finished.

6. Approval requests are sent out to all involved parties.

7. When your request has been approved or rejected, you'll get an email notification.

8. You can see all your requests on the Microsoft Purview Data Catalog Data product search page, in the My access requests tab.

9. You can also delete an access request by hovering over the request, and selecting the trash can Delete button. Only requests that are in a pending state can be deleted.
