# Understand the data product overview

You can access a **Data Product overview** by:

- Opening the [**Data Marketplace** overview](https://knowledge.bigenius-x.com/understand-the-data-marketplace-overview?hsLang=en):  
  ![](https://knowledge.bigenius-x.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Apr-09-2025-07-45-35-6890-AM.png?width=670&height=279&name=image-png-Apr-09-2025-07-45-35-6890-AM.png)
- Clicking on a **Data Product** card:

The **Data Product overview** is made up of several areas:

2. [The **output ports**](https://knowledge.bigenius-x.com/understand-the-data-product-overview#output-ports)
3. The **[biGENIUS-X modelling projects](https://knowledge.bigenius-x.com/understand-the-data-product-overview#bigenius-x-modelling-projects)**
4. [The **product detail**](https://knowledge.bigenius-x.com/understand-the-data-product-overview#product-details)

### Product diagram

The Product diagram displays the Data Product and its connections with other Data Products and Source Systems:

![](https://knowledge.bigenius-x.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Jan-20-2026-03-01-10-6541-PM.png?width=1010&height=239&name=image-png-Jan-20-2026-03-01-10-6541-PM.png)

A connection can be:

- Between the Data Contract of a Source system and an Input Port of a Data Product
- Between the Output Port of a Data Product and the Input Port of another Data Product

Authorization is needed to access the Data Contract of a Source System or the Output Port of a Data Product.

This is managed by requesting access.

You can find more details here: [Request access to a product](https://knowledge.bigenius-x.com/request-the-access-to-a-product?hsLang=en).

If an access for a data product was requested and accepted, the data product appears active in the diagram, and the line is blue:

![](https://knowledge.bigenius-x.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Jan-20-2026-03-04-37-3825-PM.png?width=1010&height=239&name=image-png-Jan-20-2026-03-04-37-3825-PM.png)

If an access for a data product was requested but not yet accepted, the request is pending, the data product appears in grey in the diagram, and the line is dotted blue:

![](https://knowledge.bigenius-x.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Jan-20-2026-03-03-31-1660-PM.png?width=1010&height=239&name=image-png-Jan-20-2026-03-03-31-1660-PM.png)

If the data product output port is obsolete, the line is dotted grey:

![](https://knowledge.bigenius-x.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Jan-20-2026-03-03-48-2368-PM.png?width=1010&height=239&name=image-png-Jan-20-2026-03-03-48-2368-PM.png)

### Output ports

The list of output ports is displayed with the latest data contract (higher version).
