Hello everyone, I'm new to DataHub (testing functionalities). I am researching whether it is possible to automatically reuse e.g. a description of a column every time that column is reused (such as automatically recognizing / propagating metadata). Can someone help me with it?

Hi, you might be interested in using a transformer to automatically apply existing terms to columns/tables- see docs here https://datahubproject.io/docs/metadata-ingestion/docs/transformer/dataset_transformer/#simple-add-dataset-glossaryterms
Could you also see the tags-terms propagation action that’s in PR right now and see if that might solve your problem? https://github.com/acryldata/datahub-actions/pull/82
