In the data governance admin experience, you can manage the data governance settings that apply to Microsoft Purview Unified Catalog in one place. Users who hold the Data Governance Administrator role can set Unified Catalog roles and permissions, configure self-service analytics (preview), and manage other settings described in this article.
Prerequisites
To use the data governance admin experience, you need to be in the tenant-level data governance admin role.
Where to find Unified Catalog solution settings
To use the Data Governance Administrator experience in the Microsoft Purview portal:
- In the Microsoft Purview portal, select Settings.
- Under Solution settings, select Unified Catalog.
- Select a setting name from the navigation. Each setting is explained in more detail below.
Roles and permissions
The roles and permissions item has moved from the Unified Catalog solution to the solution settings, but the steps for applying those permissions are still the same. For more information about setting up roles and permissions for your users, see the data governance permissions documentation.
Solution integrations (preview) for self-serve analytics and insights
The Solution integrations (preview) page is where you set up self-service analytics and insights. These insights are data, tools, and platforms that enable business users to access, analyze, and generate insights from data independently by bringing their own tools and compute. For details, see Self-service analytics and insights (preview).
Usage settings (preview)
Data Governance Administrators can understand and adjust the usage settings available for Unified Catalog in this experience. The Data Health Management SKU can be changed for data quality jobs, and data quality monitoring can be used to monitor and understand the effect on processing. In the rare event of capacity not being available for a higher SKU, a basic SKU is defaulted to. Learn more about data governance billing.
Usage monitoring (preview)
Note
Usage monitoring is rolling out across regions. If you don't see it yet in your tenant, it will appear in the coming weeks.
The Usage monitoring experience is the Data Governance Administrator’s view of governed assets and data governance processing unit (DGPU) consumption across different governance domains. This allows the admin to take the overall bill and use the consumption breakdown by governance domains to create a chargeback model in their organization across governed assets and DGPU meters.
The data reported in the charts reflect daily totals. The counts are by each governance domain and not aggregated to the parent.
Consumption data is split across governance domains as follows:
- Governed asset: Asset used in more than governance domain split evenly across each domain that uses the asset. This could show decimals in asset count.
- Data quality: Each data quality job maps to a governance domain, not split.
- Data health management: Split evenly across all governance domains.
Any other advanced split logic can be used via self-serve analytics, when all DGPU data will be available in self-serve analytics.
Other points to know:
Cumulative governed assets are the cumulative governed assets for the time period chosen that is used to calculate your bill, not a unique count. Get details on how governed assets are billed.
The actual bill isn't shown in the Usage monitoring settings; your bill is located in the Microsoft Azure portal.
If a governance domain is renamed, its previous name shows on the chart for the date on which it changed. The new name shows on the date after the name change.
When governance domain is deleted, only the GUID is shown, not the domain name and owner name.

Data observability (preview)
Data observability (preview) provides a single view of your data estate to help you understand lineage and data health, and identify improvements in metadata, ownership, data quality, or data architecture. This area of Unified Catalog settings is where admins handle initial setup steps returned to generate data visualizations. Get details at Set up data observability.
Virtual network
Data Governance Administrators can provision a virtual network compute location in supported Microsoft Azure regions. Get details at Manage virtual network provisioning
