PowerBI lineage harvester - Create relation between PowerBI Report and PowerBI Column
Summary: takishoogterp1 is using the PowerBI lineage harvester and has identified a gap in its functionality, specifically the lack of a direct relationship between PowerBI Report and PowerBI Column asset types. While there is a way to trace this relationship indirectly through a series of connections (column -> table -> data model -> report), takishoogterp1 seeks a more straightforward solution. They are asking if it's feasible to modify the lineage harvester to establish this direct link or if there are alternative methods to achieve their goal.
Hi everyone,
I am working with the PowerBI lineage harvester, and noticed that there is no direct relation between PowerBI Report asset type to the PowerBI Column asset type. It is possible to get the relationship indirect by following the relation from column -> table -> data model -> report, however we want a direct relationship between report and column to easily show in a view which PowerBI Columns (measures) can be found in which Reports.
Is it possible to add this relationship to the lineage harvester so it is automatically created. Or is there another way?
Cheers,
Takis
