Network considerations

Cloud: HTTPS. No VPN needed.

On-premises: VPN or reverse proxy. REST API at /rest/2.0/.

Credential and auth management

Preferred: Dedicated service account with API access. Read-only role in Collibra.

Session management: Collibra REST API uses session cookies or basic auth per request.

SAML: If SSO enforced, may need to use a local account or API key bypass.
