View Field Lineage
Any of these security requirements:
- Prism Datasets: Managedomain in the Prism Analytics functional area.
- Prism Datasets: Owner Managedomain in the Prism Analytics functional area.
- Prism Datasets: Publishdomain in the Prism Analytics functional area.
- Dataset Editorpermission on the dataset.
- Dataset Ownerpermission on the dataset.
- Dataset Viewerpermission on the dataset and the tenant is configured to have theEnable Prism Dataset Transformationscheck box enabled.
When you bring in data and transform it in Prism Analytics, you can create
complex workflows containing multiple transformation stages across various datasets.
You can visually see the different stages and datasets a field passed through up
that point by viewing the lineage for the field.
- Access theView Dataset Lineagereport for a derived dataset.
- Select the field whose lineage that you want to view, and selectView Field Lineage.On the View Field Lineage report, the graph displays all transformations involving data in the field up to that point across all datasets you have access to.When you access the View Field Lineage report, you start at the field that you selected, the root node, and you can:
- Select a node to view details in the inspector panel on the stage represented in that node.
- Control your view of the lineage by expanding and collapsing chevrons in the graph.
- View the changes across different datasets and tables, differentiated by a colored outline encompassing all nodes in a dataset.
- Navigate through decision nodes, where there’s a divergence in the lineage.
- View all nodes in datasets and tables that you have at least View Table or View Transformations permissions for.
- Trace the lineage of all dependent fields for calculated fields.
