Techniques are disclosed relating to a graphical user interface (GUI) that is operable to depict data lineage information in levels. In some embodiments, data lineage information may specify a directed graph that is indicative of a data lineage associated with a plurality of data elements. For example, in the data lineage information, the plurality of data elements may be represented as a corresponding plurality of nodes and, in the directed graph, the plurality of nodes may be connected by edges in a manner that is indicative of the data lineage relationships between the plurality of data elements. In various embodiments, the disclosed techniques may generate a data lineage GUI that, for a selected data element of the plurality of elements, is usable to navigate different levels of the data lineage in an upstream and downstream direction relative to a particular level of the selected data element.
