Hello all. Is it possible to add UI editable custom properties to the fields, like
max_length
?

hey Andriy! it is possible to add custom properties and extend the metadata model in your own custom way. I would check out these docs for building custom aspects/entities
https://datahubproject.io/docs/metadata-modeling/extending-the-metadata-model/#step-3-define-custom-aspects-or-a[…]h-existing-aspects-to-your-entity
and here's an example with more docs:

or you can always leverage the existing Properties tab which is meant as a catchall for key: value pairs about your entity that haven't been captured yet. You can see an example transformer here that explains how to add these properties to datasets, for example
https://datahubproject.io/docs/metadata-ingestion/docs/transformer/dataset_transformer/#simple-add-dataset-datasetproperties

However editing these properties isn’t currently supported.

Hi
@bulky-soccer-26729
, is there a way to bulk ingest custom properties using CSV like how we do for tags, owners other fields that exist on the UI?
