Preparation: Transform data
Prepare inputs and settings through Transform data before running track data lineage.
Why it matters
Transform data sets up the foundation for track data lineage; clean inputs here reduce downstream rework.
The Result
Inputs, context, and settings are ready so the workflow can move into execution without blockers.

Input Setup: Extract data
Use Extract data to build supporting assets that improve track data lineage quality.
Why it matters
Extract data strengthens track data lineage by feeding better supporting material into the pipeline.
The Result
Supporting assets from extract data are prepared and connected to the main workflow.

Step 4 of 7Open task page
Core Execution: Track data lineage
Execute track data lineage with Track data lineage to produce the primary decision-ready insight.
Why it matters
This is the core step where track data lineage actually happens, so it determines baseline quality for everything after it.
The Result
A first-pass decision-ready insight is generated and ready for refinement in the next steps.

Quality and Optimization: Synchronize data
Refine and validate track data lineage output using Synchronize data before final delivery.
Why it matters
Synchronize data adds quality control so issues are caught before the workflow is finalized.
The Result
The decision-ready insight is improved, validated, and prepared for final delivery.

Step 7 of 7Open task page
Delivery: Cleanse data
Package and ship the output through Cleanse data so track data lineage reaches end users.
Why it matters
Cleanse data is what turns intermediate output into a usable, publishable result for real users.
The Result
A finalized decision-ready insight is ready for publishing, handoff, or integration.

Ask For HelpBefore You Start
Quick answers to help you decide whether this workflow fits your current goal and team setup.
Who should use the Track data lineage workflow?
Teams or solo builders working on data tasks who want a repeatable process instead of one-off tool experiments.
Do I need to use every tool in all 7 steps?
No. Start with the top pick for each step, then replace tools only if they do not fit your pricing, compliance, or output needs.
How should I choose between tools in each step?
Open the mapped task page and compare top options side by side. Prioritize output quality, integration fit, and predictable cost before scaling.
