# Lineage

> Part of Discover and enrich

Track and visualize data lineage across your data landscape to understand data flow and dependencies.

- [view lineage](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/catalog/lineage/view-lineage/llms.txt): The lineage graph in Atlan provides a granular view of the data flows and transformations for your assets. To learn how to use the lineage graph, complete the following steps.
- [Set up Cross-Connection Lineage](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/catalog/lineage/set-up-standard-lineage-workflow/llms.txt): Generate lineage across multiple connections in the same connector using the Atlan Standard Lineage app. Covers BigQuery cross-connection lineage setup, prerequisites, configuration, and known limitations.
- [Download and export lineage](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/catalog/lineage/download-and-export-lineage/llms.txt): View, download, and export lineage reports to analyze data flows and impact. Create CSV impact reports, export lineage graphs as images, and share lineage data to Google Sheets and Microsoft Excel for impact analysis and root cause analysis.
- [Generate lineage between assets](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/catalog/lineage/generate-lineage-no-transformations/llms.txt): Automatically create lineage between assets across two connections when their names match or follow a consistent pattern. The Lineage Generator (no transformations) app creates direct lineage relationships for data flows between databases, warehouses, or storage systems.
- [Build lineage from CSV](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/catalog/lineage/build-lineage-from-csv/llms.txt): Import lineage relationships between assets from a CSV file using the Lineage Builder app. Create lineage connections that include transformation processes, ETL workflows, dbt models, and custom data pipelines that aren't automatically discovered by connectors.
- [Generate lineage with Generic Miner](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/catalog/lineage/generate-lineage-with-generic-miner/llms.txt): Configure and run Generic Miner to extract table-level and column-level lineage from SQL query history stored in Atlan's object store, Amazon S3, Google Cloud Storage, or Azure Blob Storage—without a live connection to the source system.
- [Propagate metadata through lineage](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/catalog/lineage/propagate-metadata-through-lineage/llms.txt): Propagate metadata like owners, certificates, and tags from upstream assets to downstream dependents automatically using the Metadata Propagator app. The app follows existing lineage relationships to push governance metadata downstream without manual updates.
- [Load lineage and assets from CSV](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/catalog/lineage/load-lineage-and-assets-from-csv/llms.txt): Create lineage and optionally generate assets in Atlan from a source-to-target CSV mapping file stored in Amazon S3. The Lineage and asset loader app reads CSV mappings, creates lineage relationships, and optionally creates missing source or target assets.
- [Transfer orchestration task attributes to assets](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/catalog/lineage/transfer-orchestration-task-attributes/llms.txt): Propagate operational attributes from orchestration tasks and jobs to connected assets using the Orchestration tasks attribute transfer app. Transfer run status, schedules, run timestamps, and task links to upstream or downstream assets through lineage.
- [Column Level Lineage](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/catalog/lineage/what-is-column-level-lineage/llms.txt): Data lineage shows the upstream and downstream dependencies of an asset. For a more granular view of these dependencies, you can view column-level lineage.
