Question

Hii,
I want to Create a Parent Child Relation Between Glossary terms in purview using rest Post APi,
I tried the following API:https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/purview/catalogdataplane/relationship/create?tabs=HTTP

but could not create Parent Child Relations between Glossary Terms.

Please Let me know which rest API is useful for creating parent-child relations within glossary terms in purview.

Answer 1

Hello @Bina Trivedi ,

Could you please try to create the relationship using this REST API - Glossary - Create Glossary Term

The child glossary term must have the following:

1. qualifiedName must be parentFormalName_childFormalName@Taiwan Glossary
2. a field "parentTerm" must consist of {"termGuid": parentGuid}
3. a field "nickName" may be set which is the same as the name field.

For example I have a parent of "Accounting@Taiwan Glossary " and I want to add a child of "General Ledger".

1. qualifiedName would be Accounting_General Ledger@Taiwan Glossary
2. parentTerm would be {"termGuid": "guidOfAccounting@Taiwan Glossary "}
3. nickName would be "General Ledger"

Hope this info helps. Do let us know how it goes.

Thank you
