where_used
Find which Tableau workbooks and published datasources use specific columns, fields, or tables. Run impact analysis by passing exact names to identify dependent worksheets and data sources.
Instructions
Find which workbooks (and published datasources) USE the given names, the common 'where is this used / impact analysis' question, resolved robustly.
`names` are EXACT, case-sensitive names of any of: a Snowflake/DB column, a Tableau
field or alias, or a database table. Pass several to check them in one call. Results
group by workbook, showing how each matched (column / field / whole table, with schema
and source table) and which worksheets use it.
This uses CORE lineage (referencedByFields -> field.sheets -> workbook, and
field.datasource -> workbook), so it works even without the Data Management add-on where
`downstreamWorkbooks` is empty. For other shapes of question, use `graphql_query`.
