How to Export lineage data directly from unity catalog without using system tables

Mahesh_Yadav — Mon, 24 Jun 2024 12:23:08 GMT

I have been trying to check if there is any direct way to export lineage hierarchy data in data bricks.

I have tried to build a workaround solution by accessing system tables as per this link:

Monitor usage with system tables - Azure Databricks | Microsoft Learn

But want to check if it can be achieved using interface itself instead?

I have a similar use case. The Databricks Lineage Graph is nice but only zooms out enough for the most basic lineages. We have lineages/data flows with hundreds of tables. I'd like more flexibility on showing the entire flow in one screen and exporting the background data to use in other graphing/data flow tools.
