Hi there,

We’re getting a fresh new look! ✨

Soon, dScribe Catalog will roll out an updated design with a more modern, youthful, and refreshed feel. While the interface will look different, everything you rely on will stay exactly the same—no changes to features, workflows, or functionality.

Think of it as the same powerful experience, just with a cleaner and more vibrant design.

Stay tuned—we will roll out these changes in the coming weeks.

As always, we’d love to hear what you think!

Hi there,

It’s been a while since our last release update, and we’ve shipped quite a few improvements in the meantime. Here’s an overview of what’s new in dScribe Catalog.

Major new capabilities

Asset ownership & suggestions

You can now allow users to suggest changes to asset documentation. Suggestions are possible on any asset with ownership assigned. You can find more information here.

New dashboard

Users now have access to a personal Dashboard. A significant upgrade from the old Insights page, this new experience gives you a clearer view of activity and usage, and supports stewards with actionable suggestions.

New hierarchical graph view

We’ve introduced a new hierarchical graph view to make it easier to explore relationships and understand how assets connects across your data landscape.

Smaller improvements

(for admins) A refreshed source page

Source detail pages in the Admin Portal have a new look, offering useful source information at a glance.

Onboarding playbook

We’ve also published a new onboarding playbook for dScribe Catalog:

https://help.dscribe.cloud/en/articles/14019057-dscribe-catalog-onboarding-playbook

Even for experienced customers, it includes helpful tips such as how to maintain a lightweight monthly operating rhythm and keeping content reusable.

Coming soon: new asset detail page

We've significantly reworked the asset detail page. The new version will be less overwhelming, easy to work with (especially also for new dScribe users) and contains all the same information you are used to.

We expect to be able to release the new look next week. Here is a sneak preview:

What we're also working on

We’re continuing to invest in making data governance as easy and impactful as possible to keep going in the long run.

AI-powered automation for data governance

We’re working on further automation capabilities that reduce the heavy lifting and help teams spend less time on manual governance work.

Continuous improvement on embedding in AI flows

We’re also continuing to improve how dScribe can be embedded into AI workflows, so trusted context is easier to surface where it’s needed. Good to know: integration in chatbots such as Microsoft Copilot are already possible. Several customers have successfully started using this capability already.

As always, we’d love to hear what you think!

You can now link guides inside your guide, making it easy to create modular, focused walkthroughs.

Linked guides will appear as a preview card showing the title, app icon, number of steps and creation date. This lets readers move seamlessly between related guides, whether in the web app or plugin, without having to use external hyperlinks.

Hi there,

Today, many companies operate across borders, with teams and users who speak a variety of languages beyond English. Delivering clear, localized communication is essential for providing a great user experience.

Key features:

• Multi-language Management: Create and manage multiple versions of the same article for each supported language, ensuring your content is relevant and accessible to all users.
• Linked Language Versions: Each guide has a default language and can be linked to translated versions, helping you preserve a unified content structure across all languages.
• Auto translate: we added the option, when creating a new language version of a guide, to translate it automatically to the language of choice. Need to tweak some things? We got you covered! You can adjust all translations manually.

Interested in giving it a try? Reach out to us and we’ll get you onboarded.

You can now embed guides directly into tools like SharePoint, Confluence or any site that supports HTML iframes, making it easier to share guides with your team, right where they work.

Embeds can be configured on the guide detail page:

Choose Slideshow mode for focused walkthroughs or Scroll mode to show all steps at once. Just copy the embed code and paste it into your platform.

📢 We are proud to announce that dScribe has officially achieved ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification! 📢

At dScribe, security has always been a top priority — and now it’s recognized at the highest international standard. ISO 27001 certification means our approach to data protection, risk management, and information security is not only strong, but independently verified.

Why it matters:
As a documentation platform, we know our customers trust us with sensitive, business-critical information. This certification is part of our ongoing commitment to earning and maintaining that trust — by making sure their data is safe, available, and protected.

How we got here:
Over the past few months, our team worked closely with external auditors to assess and validate the security controls, processes, and systems we’ve put in place across the company. It's a big milestone, and just one step on our journey to continuous improvement.

We’ve improved the editing experience for guides! You can now add new steps after you've created a guide — no need to start from scratch. This ensures that your guides stay up-to-date and relevant as processes evolve.

Managing roles and permissions just got easier! We’ve introduced a streamlined way to control access and ensure seamless collaboration across your workspaces and organization.

There are two levels of permissions:

1. Organization Roles: Manage users, security, and overall organization settings.
2. Workspace Roles: Control content management and access within specific workspaces.
   ​

📌 Note: All users who have already been added to your organization will automatically be assigned the Global Admin role.

• What is a Global Admin?
  A Global Admin has full access to organization settings, user management, and the ability to create workspaces. They hold complete rights across the system.

• How can I manage who gets this permission?
  If you want to adjust who holds Global Admin access, simply head to the Organization Settings page by clicking your profile icon.

Check more details here for full insights on roles and permissions.
