Lineage Information for Different Resource Types
You can obtain the lineage information for most resource types. The information is displayed graphically in the resource lineage graph. The relationships and connection between different resources can be especially useful. Also, you can change the resource focus to navigate between resources and understand their relationships.
This table illustrates examples of the lineage information that is displayed for many resource types (listed in alphabetical order).
