Technical lineage for Looker

When you ingest Looker metadata, you automatically create a technical lineage for Looker Look assets. If you have the right permissions to view the technical lineage, you can go to a Looker Look asset page and click the Technical lineage tab, which allows you to access the technical lineage.

Note Due to the limitations of the Looker REST API, we cannot stitch Looker assets and corresponding assets in Data Catalog. The Looker REST API does not provide transformations in Looker that are needed for stitching. As a result, the technical lineage only shows Looker metadata as it exists on the Collibra Data Lineage service and not as assets in Data Catalog.

Example

The following technical lineage graph shows the technical lineage of Looker objects.
