Actor¶

An actor is a person, group of people, or an automated process that is operating in the open metadata ecosystem. There are three types of actor:

• An Actor Profile describes a person, team or automated process operating in the open metadata ecosystem.
• An Actor Role describes a collection of responsibilities in the open metadata ecosystem. An actor profile can be appointed to a role to show that he/she/they/it are performing those responsibilities.
• A User Identity describes a user account that is defined to a user account. A user account can be linked to an actor profile to provide information on who/what is using the user account.
