Data marketplace: Features still in the pipeline

This page is part of our guide to the new data marketplace experience. You can also see our other pages about what's mandatory to migrate, or what's new or different.

A few familiar capabilities from the old experience haven’t yet landed in the data marketplace. They’re either being re-engineered to fit the new “asset-first” model, or they're being evaluated for better alternatives.

We know these gaps matter but we’ve prioritized the most widely used capabilities first, and queued the rest for upcoming releases!

• Shared Catalog

  Domains that rely on a shared catalog are not yet eligible for Marketplace activation. This configuration requires specific adjustments that are not supported in the current version. We will let you know as soon as the Marketplace is compatible with shared catalogs.

• Disqus

  The old Disqus comments tab, which let you embed an external discussion thread on each dataset—has been retired. A built-in commenting feature is in the roadmap, so producers and consumers will soon be able to exchange feedback directly inside the data marketplace.

• Language-dependent column display

  The old experience let you show or hide specific dataset columns depending on the portal’s language. That setting isn’t available yet, but it’s in the roadmap and will return in an upcoming release!

• Dataset subscriptions

  The “subscribe to a dataset” feature (automatic alerts when a dataset changed) is currently not available. It will be re-imagined as part of the upcoming producer-to-consumer interaction feature, giving users a smarter way to stay informed about updates.

• Social sharing

  The “Share” URL hasn’t been added yet to the data marketplace experience. It will come back as part of a larger sharing module that lets users promote an asset not only on public platforms, but also inside their organisation via tools such as Microsoft Teams, Slack, and other internal channels.
