Lineage
New & Improved
Auto Lineage | Connector Name Display in Jobs
In the Lineage module, BUILD_LINEAGE jobs did not display the associated connector name in the Jobs interface, making it difficult to identify the connector associated with lineage processing. The functionality has been updated, and now the connector name is displayed for lineage build jobs in the Jobs page.
👉 For more details, see Build Auto Lineage section
Association | Support for Procedures, Functions, Views, and Triggers
In the Lineage module, the Association feature did not support Procedures, Functions, Views, and Triggers during manual lineage creation, resulting in incomplete object relationship mapping. The functionality has been updated and now the Association feature supports Procedures, Functions, Views, and Triggers to provide broader relationship mapping and lineage visibility.
The following improvements have been implemented:
Added Association support for Procedures, Functions, Views, and Triggers
Expanded object relationship mapping across supported object types
Added support for impact analysis across associated objects
Azure Data Factory Connector | AI-Augmented Lineage
In the Azure Data Factory Connector, lineage generation required improved interpretation of pipelines, activities, and transformation logic to support automated dependency mapping. The functionality has been updated and now AI-augmented lineage generation is supported for Azure Data Factory pipelines.
The following improvements have been implemented:
Interpret Azure Data Factory pipeline JSON definitions for lineage generation
Support activities such as Copy, Data Flow, and Lookup for lineage mapping
Handle parameterized and dynamic pipeline structures
Generate dependency relationships across pipeline components
Standardize lineage extraction logic for ADF artifacts
👉 For more details, see Supported Connectors section
Lineage Status | Standardized Status Mapping
In the Lineage module, the status values were inconsistent across different execution scenarios, leading to variations in status representation. The functionality has been updated and now standardized lineage status values are applied across all supported scenarios.
The following improvements have been implemented:
Update “Lineage Build Successfully” to “Lineage Built Successfully”
Update “Lineage Built with Associations” to “Lineage Built only with Associations”
Update “Success Lineage Fixed” to “Lineage Built with OvalEdge Lab”
👉 For more details, see the Viewing Source Codes section
Lineage Parsing | Error Bucket Categorization
In the Lineage module, lineage parsing errors were displayed as raw technical messages, making it difficult to interpret failure reasons. The functionality has been updated, and now errors are grouped into categorized error buckets with support for a detailed error view.
The following improvements have been implemented:
Replace technical error messages with categorized error buckets
Display structured error information for lineage parsing failures
Provide a detailed error view for troubleshooting purposes
👉 For more details, see the Viewing Source Codes section
ADF Lineage | AI Enhancement
In the Azure Data Factory Connector, lineage extraction from pipeline definitions lacked completeness and consistency. The enhancement has been implemented, and now AI-based lineage generation supports full ADF pipeline interpretation.
The following improvements have been implemented:
Enabled AI interpretation of ADF pipeline JSON
Improved handling of transformations and parameters
Automated lineage relationship generation
Enhanced scalability for large pipeline structures
👉 For more details, see the Supported Connectors section
Build Lineage | Tracking Columns
In the Build Lineage screen, Start Date and Job Id were not available for tracking lineage execution. The enhancement has been implemented, and now both fields are visible for improved traceability.
The following improvements have been implemented:
Added Start Date column for lineage execution tracking
Added Job Id column for job identification
Improved visibility of lineage build timelines
Enhanced traceability of execution workflows
👉 For more details, see the viewing Source Codes section
Fixed
Python Lineage | AI Parsing
In the Lineage AI module, Python-based lineage parsing was inconsistent in generating structured lineage outputs. The issue has been resolved, and now AI parsing produces structured Python lineage JSON accurately.
The following improvements have been implemented:
Enabled AI-based parsing of Python scripts for lineage extraction
Generated structured lineage JSON with tables and relationships
Extracted embedded SQL and transformation logic correctly
Improved validation of lineage results
