Glossary search and description when enriching data.all resources metadata

Open louishourcade opened this issue 2 years ago • 0 comments

Is your idea related to a problem? Please describe. Users create glossaries to associate their "data.all" resources with a business context. Each component of the glossary (category and term) is made of a name and a description. When users want to associate a Glossary term to a resources, they get a drop down list with all the terms, categories and glossary names. This makes it difficult for users to find the correct term in the case there are a lot of glossaries, categories, or terms. Moreover, they only see the name of the glossary/category/term which means it is not necessarily clear for users to select the right glossary.

Describe the solution you'd like Users would benefit in having a better UI when associating glossaries to data.all resources. In this enhanced UI, we should include:

  • A way to search for a specific glossary/category/term based on its name (search bar)
  • A way to provide the description of glossary/category/term to the users, in addition to the name. One possibility would be to provide the description when an user hovers on the glossary/category/term (like in the screenshot below).

P.S. Don't attach files. Please, prefer add code snippets directly in the message body. proposed_enhancement_glossary
