Viewing and Managing Lineage

From any asset's page, you can view its lineage graph, a visual representation of how the asset connects to others.

You'll see:

  • Upstream assets - what this depends on

  • Downstream assets - what depends on this

  • The types of relationships (e.g., calculation, data reference, display usage)

Use the lineage view to:

  • Trace the origin of an issue

  • Identify critical paths in your data pipeline

  • Visualize asset dependencies across your plant

If your scanners return lineage metadata, Osprey will automatically maintain this graph. You can also manage lineage manually for custom systems.
