New API - Lineage

The Lineage API enables users to keep track of the origins and impacted content of the base objects on resource, table, and field levels.

Additionally, the Lineage API supports search, expansion, and overview on the nodes within input and output graphs.

With this API you can:

  • GET/v1/lineage-graphs/nodes/{id}: Returns a lineage graph of a source node.

{id}is the QRI of the base node

curl "https://your-tenant.us.qlikcloud.com/api/v1/lineage-graphs/nodes/{id}" \
 -H "Authorization: Bearer <API-key>"
  • GET/v1/lineage-graphs/impact/{id}/source : Returns all levels of the requested root node. {id}is the QRI of the base node
curl "https://your-tenant.us.qlikcloud.com/api/v1/lineage-graphs/impact/{id}/source" \
