You can also survey an asset's impact analysis in a snap on the entity sidebar.</p><p align="center"><img loading="lazy" width="80%" src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/datahub-project/static-assets/main/imgs/lineage/lineage-tab-v3.png" class="img_ev3q"></p><p>By default, the UI shows the latest version of the lineage.

On a data pipeline's
|
|||
|
|
entity page, go to the <strong>Lineage</strong> tab to open the visualization. At its center will be the data pipeline node,
|
|||
|
|
represented as a box containing all of its composite tasks. You can click and drag to move each task within the box,
|
|||
|
|
as well as click and drag the data pipeline box itself.</p><p align="center"><img loading="lazy" width="80%" src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/datahub-project/static-assets/main/imgs/lineage/dataflow-lineage-tab.png" class="img_ev3q"></p><p>Further, you can leverage DataHub's cross-platform lineage to view the upstreams and downstreams of each task.
|
|||
|
|
The number on the expand lineage button represents how many data-dependence upstreams / downstreams the task has.
|
|||
|
|
After expanding, you can keep expanding lineage further like the standard lineage explorer.</p><p align="center"><img loading="lazy" width="80%" src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/datahub-project/static-assets/main/imgs/lineage/dataflow-lineage-expand.png" class="img_ev3q"></p><p>Note that you can only expand one task's upstreams and one task's downstreams at a time, to keep the visualization simple.</p><p align="center"><img loading="lazy" width="80%" src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/datahub-project/static-assets/main/imgs/lineage/dataflow-lineage-expand-2.png" class="img_ev3q"></p><h2 class="anchor anchorWithStickyNavbar_LWe7" id="adding-lineage">Adding Lineage<a href="#adding-lineage" class="hash-link" aria-label="Direct link to Adding Lineage" title="Direct link to Adding Lineage"></a></h2><h3 class="anchor anchorWithStickyNavbar_LWe7" id="ingestion-source">Ingestion Source<a href="#ingestion-source" class="hash-link" aria-label="Direct link to Ingestion Source" title="Direct link to Ingestion Source"></a></h3><p>If you're using an ingestion source that supports extraction of Lineage (e.g. <strong>Table Lineage Capability</strong>), then lineage information can be extracted automatically.

Data experts are free to add or remove upstream and downstream lineage edges in both the Lineage Visualization screen as well as the Lineage tab on entity pages. Use this feature to supplement automatic lineage extraction or establish important entity relationships in sources that do not support automatic extraction. Editing lineage by hand is supported for Datasets, Charts, Dashboards, and Data Jobs.

|

|

It is strongly recommend that lineage is edited manually in cases where lineage information is not also extracted in automated fashion, e.g. by running an ingestion source. If you are going to manually edit lineage for an entity in which lineage is
|
|||
|
|
automatically ingested, see if the appropriate ingestion source supports <code>incremental_lineage</code> and if so, consider enabling
|
|||
|
|
that configuration flag. Note that if you do set this flag, lineage edges that used to exist will not be removed, and so
|
|||
|
|
you may need to use time-based filtering to accurately determine current lineage.</p></div></div><h3 class="anchor anchorWithStickyNavbar_LWe7" id="api">API<a href="#api" class="hash-link" aria-label="Direct link to API" title="Direct link to API"></a></h3><p>If you are not using a Lineage-support ingestion source, you can programmatically emit lineage edges between entities via API.
