DataHub Actions
Event-driven automation for DataHub — react to metadata changes in real time and trigger workflows, notifications, or custom logic.
What you can do
- Listen to metadata change events as they happen (entity updates, tag additions, ownership changes, etc.)
- Filter events to only act on what matters to you
- Chain transformers to enrich or reshape events before they reach your action
- Build custom actions — call APIs, send Slack alerts, trigger pipelines, sync to external systems
- Run multiple pipelines in a single process
