Catalog and Marketplace Interfaces

The Coalesce Catalog app includes two interfaces: the Catalog and the Marketplace.

How to navigate between the Catalog and Marketplace interfaces

The Catalog: Your Main Interface​

The Catalog is the primary interface where you find all assets from your data stack and documentation.

All use cases described in the rest of the documentation refer to the Catalog interface unless explicitly stated otherwise.

The Data Marketplace: For Data Consumers​

The Marketplace is a curated, consumer-friendly interface that showcases only production-ready data products in a simplified, business-oriented view.

Key benefits of the Marketplace:

  • Assets are organized by Domain, using familiar business language
  • Only consumption-ready assets are shown
  • It acts as a central entry point for business users to explore and use data easily

How to Set Up Your Data Marketplace​

Step 1: Define Guidelines​

Before publishing, align your organization on what qualifies an asset for the Marketplace:

  • What assets should be surfaced?
  • What are the minimum requirements (for example, definition, owner, domain)?

Contributors will not be able to publish assets that do not meet your organization's criteria.

Step 2: Publish Assets​

  • Go to the Catalog interface
  • Enable the "Data product" toggle once all requirements are completed
  • The asset is now automatically visible in the Marketplace

Step 3: Share With Consumers​

  • Direct users to the Marketplace view
  • You can filter by domain and share targeted URLs for specific audiences

The Marketplace feature is not currently available to all accounts.
