> Atlan crawls and maps the following assets and properties from Microsoft Azure Data Factory.

Atlan crawls and maps the following assets and properties from Microsoft Azure Data Factory.

For any currently unsupported linked services, datasets, and activities from Microsoft Azure Data Factory not listed below, Atlan maps them to the relevant asset type and only displays asset name, type, and description.

## Linked services

Atlan maps linked services from Microsoft Azure Data Factory to its `AdfLinkedservice` asset type.
