Technical lineage browser

Important

In CPSH 2025.09, we launched a new user interface (UI) for technical lineage viewer.

Use the following options to see the documentation for the latest or classic technical lineage viewer UI: Latest technical lineage viewer UI (in preview) Classic technical lineage viewer UI

The latest technical lineage viewer UI is in public preview. For support, open issues in the Collibra Preview Program.

The Browse pane allows you to navigate to and search for a specific data object within the technical lineage tree. Click the button on the toolbar to open or close the Browse pane.

No	Name	Description
	Search	A search field that you can use to find a specific data object. You can enter a data object name to search for a data object. The technical lineage viewer performs a case-insensitive substring search. This means it returns any entry that contains the keyword, regardless of capitalization or position in the text. Example When you search for `dashboard`, the following results might return: my-dashboard dashboards-for-work DaSHboard abcDashboardefg DASHBOARDabc
	Navigation tree	A navigation tree in which you can search for specific data objects and visualize them in your technical lineage. The data objects are grouped by node type and have the following structure: system (if applicable) > database > schema > table > column. Note The list of data objects contains all systems, databases, schemas, tables and columns that were collected from the data sources by Collibra Data Lineage. If available, it also shows the technical lineage of BI sources, for example Power BI and Looker. In that case, the structure follows the existing structure in the BI source metadata. The UNUSED branch contains data objects that were detected by Collibra Data Lineage, but are not included in any Technical lineage.
	View status	The button to show the Status pane. The Status pane contains the following tab panes: The Sources tab pane. Use this tab pane to check the status of technical lineage sources and transformation results. The Stitching tab pane. Use this tab page to check the stitching results.
