Hi all, We want to get table descriptions when importing metadata with using transformers. However, we could not get the table descriptions using custom transformers as mentioned in the document. How can we do this?

Hi @flat-table-17463, do you think you could share a little more information like the platform you are ingesting from and the errors/results you aren’t seeing? Is this the doc you are using? https://datahubproject.io/docs/metadata-ingestion/docs/transformer/dataset_transformer/#writing-a-custom-transformer-from-scratch

Firstly, thank you @astonishing-answer-96712. But let me explain; We have postgres table and its description. For example table's description : "Description=It is the table where the nationality information of the customer is kept.\n#Restriction=\n#AggregateRoot=person\n#HasSoftDelete" I get expressions containing "#" from within this description using Regex that tokens : #HasSoftDelete, #AggregateRoot, #Restriction, etc Then I want to add these tokens as table's tag so I need to access table's description. But I don't know how to access table description with using custom transformers or I have to use which transformers can do it?
