Lookup information
Entity relationship
The Workspace navigation tree shows all the visible relationships that are currently valid. The available relationship types are CONTAINS and USES. The CONTAINS relationship type applies to Parent entities whereas the USES relationship type applies to child entities. For more details, see Relationships.
The following tables list various parent and child combinations of entities per-platform managed by this ETL along with a brief description of such combinations. The Display status column depicts whether the Workspace entity navigation pane displays the corresponding parent-child entity relationship.
