What is the enterprise evidence workspace?

The enterprise evidence workspace is the Terminology Baseline interface for deposited evidence and controlled evidence operations. It shows frozen meanings, revisions, SHA-256 hashes, availability, impact, trace links, and coverage blockers. Administrators can queue freezes, run verification, import or export archives, upload files, and download artifact outputs. Only term managers can open the app.

How it works

  1. Open Terminology Baseline, then find Enterprise evidence workspace.
  2. Review Coverage blockers, Freeze progress, and frozen records before using any output.
  3. Enter a prefix in Frozen term or evidence search and select Search deposited evidence for a server search.
  4. Use the Subject and Artifact filters to narrow only the loaded page.
  5. Choose a Start node and select Show trace graph.
  6. Compare Forward impact with Reverse provenance. Select Open evidence where retained evidence exists.
  7. Run verification, archive actions, downloads, uploads, and Prepare and queue freeze as needed.

Example

An evidence administrator searches for “material incident.” They load its trace graph from the term node. Forward impact displays loaded downstream links. Reverse provenance displays loaded links toward retained source evidence. Missing evidence stays visible. The administrator runs verification, then downloads an artifact glossary slice. A reissue handoff can record the required external review.

What this does not mean

The workspace does not certify compliance. It does not replace a QMS or GRC platform. It does not approve releases or execute electronic signatures. It does not provide legal WORM storage. Page filters do not cover unloaded records. The workspace always opens the current freeze; older freezes cannot be selected. Archive import shows error codes and parity, not a per-record report. Detailed verification results remain server-side. No verified 200,000-page production capacity claim is available.

Evaluate one governed space with a completed scan. Create a freeze, inspect both trace directions, and run verification before exporting evidence. View Compliance Glossary on Atlassian Marketplace.
