Catalog

This article describes how the Catalog in Catena-X displays partner assets, requiring an EDC URL with DSP endpoint and a BPN.

Updated this week

The Catalog displays all available information about assets from specific partners within Catana-X network.

The visibility of assets depends on the set up policies (see What are Policies?) by you and your partners.

Browse Partner Assets

To browse available assets from a partner you need:

  • partner's EDC URL with DSP endpoint

  • partner's Business Partner Number (BPN)

If your partner only provides an EDC URL without DSP endpoint, you just need to add /api/v1/dsp to the EDC URL.

For example:

EDC URL

https://myedc.dataspaceos.preprod.cofinity-x.com

resulting EDC URL with DSP endpoint

https://myedc.dataspaceos.preprod.cofinity-x.com/api/v1/dsp

Enter the EDC URL with DSP endpoint and the BPN into the required fields.

Provide Partners with Your Catalog

The concept of asset catalogs applies vice versa to you and to your partners. You can provide partners with your asset catalogs.

To do this, you need to provide your partner with the following information:

  • your EDC URL with DSP endpoint, where the assets are managed

  • your Business Partner Number (BPN)

Find your EDC URL with DSP Endpoint

Navigate to Components then select the EDC which contains the assets you want to share as catalog.

You will find the EDC URL in Component Details.

To create the EDC URL with DSP Endpoint, you just need to add /api/v1/dsp to the EDC URL.

EDC URL

https://myedc.dataspaceos.preprod.cofinity-x.com

resulting EDC URL with DSP endpoint

https://myedc.dataspaceos.preprod.cofinity-x.com/api/v1/dsp
