To run data lineage on a custom resource, you must link objects in the custom resource with other objects in the resource or with objects in another resource. You can use enumerated links or rule-based links to link objects. Rule-based links are expressions that Metadata Manager uses to link matching objects.
You define rule-based links in an XML file. When you edit a custom resource, you can upload XML files that contain linking rules for the resource. Specify linking rules files on the
Linking Rules
tab. You can specify multiple linking rules files for a resource. Metadata Manager creates the links when you load the resource.
