Hi guys, is that possible to share data catalog across multiple projects? Or expose it through APIs? What I m trying to achieve is like a data metadata store for our team, so people can query and get information about datasets. Thanks.

so not out of the box, but you should be able to reverse engineer how Kedro Viz works if you wanted to do this: https://github.com/kedro-org/kedro-viz/blob/036ffc21ec79cc667f30aeb37a7f3f18328feed1/package/kedro_viz/server.py#L46

I think it is easier than that since you don’t even need the
pipelines
and
session_store
. How do you want to share the data catalog? Do you mean using the same data catalog in different project or querying data from a remote catalog?

Thanks guys. I think what I need is a metadata store for datasets, a more generic data catalog. I suppose with proper modifications, kedro may be used for this?

it’s definitely possible but we haven’t got many examples handy on how to get started 🙂

Feel free to ask if you get stuck, I am curious about this too
