Search field | A search field to find specific transformation code in a selected object or attribute. As you type, corresponding object names from the technical lineage appear in a drop-down list. If you press Enter, the technical lineage only shows the parts that contain your search word(s). |

Visualization options |
Options to define how you will see the data objects in the technical lineage. |
Group by parent object
|
Option to group tables and columns together by their hierarchical parent object. For example, a schema is the parent object of a table.
|
|
Option to hide all data objects in the middle of the data flow and only show the ending points of the technical lineage. | ||
A slider that determines the maximum flow depth. The relation path length from the first node in the technical lineage graph to any other node is automatically adjusted to the maximum flow depth. If you see in the technical lineage graph, the flow depth is set to a lower value than the actual graph size. |

Dependencies |
Drop-down to select the dependencies that you want to visualize. You can select one of the following dependencies:
|
|
Option to include indirect dependencies in a technical lineage. Tip When a column flows from one table to another, the lineage reflects the direct dependency between the column in the source table and the column in the target table. This is considered a direct lineage. By default,Collibra Data Lineage only shows direct lineage. An indirect lineage, on the other hand, shows indirect dependencies. For example, if a JOIN clause is used in a query, the columns in the resulting view are generated by the JOIN clause; in other words, by an indirect dependency, not an actual flow of data. |
