To see more metadata on any artifact, select the artifact card itself. It features all the same actions that are available in list view. For any artifact, select More options (.) to view the options menu.Select the name of the source workspace to go to that workspace. If a report in the workspace is built on a dataset or a dataflow that is located in another workspace, you see the source workspace name on the card of that dataset or dataflow. On datasets and dataflows, you see the last refresh time, as well as if the dataset or dataflow is certified or promoted. If you have permissions, either as a gateway admin or as a data source user, you see more information, such as the gateway name. If a data source is connected via an on-premises gateway, the gateway information is added to the data source card. For example, for Azure SQL server you also see the database name. On the data source cards, you see more information that can help identify the source. You see the data sources from which the datasets and dataflows get their data.
In this view, you see all the workspace artifacts and how the data flows from one artifact to another. Tap the arrow next to List view and select Lineage view. To access lineage view, go to the workspace list view. See Permissions in this article for details. You need at least a Contributor role in the workspace to view it. Explore lineage viewĮvery workspace automatically has a lineage view. This video might use earlier versions of Power BI Desktop or the Power BI service. It shows connections between all workspace artifacts, including connections to dataflows, both upstream and downstream. In lineage view, you see the lineage relationships between all the artifacts in a workspace, and all its external dependencies. For complex projects and for simpler ones, we introduce lineage view. External data sources and datasets make it harder to know where the data is coming from, ultimately. When a dataset is external to a workspace you own, it may be in a workspace owned by someone in IT or another analyst. Many datasets and dataflows connect to external data sources such as SQL Server, and to external datasets in other workspaces. Power BI has several artifact types, such as dashboards, reports, datasets, and dataflows. Power BI's data lineage view helps you answer these questions. They may require a team of experts or deep investigation to understand. Questions like "What happens if I change this data?" or "Why isn't this report up to date?" can be hard to answer. The challenge is even bigger if you have built advanced analytical projects spanning multiple data sources, artifacts, and dependencies. In modern business intelligence (BI) projects, understanding the flow of data from the data source to its destination can be a challenge.
