Relationship Graph

Overview

The relationship graph is your interactive map of the CMDB. Each node is an asset or person; each edge is a dependency, assignment, or provisioning link. Use it when you need to understand context, not just a single record in isolation.

Maya uses the graph for change planning and incident triage. Alex pairs it with blast radius when presenting impact to leadership. Carlos links new devices and servers here as part of day-to-day provisioning.

Open the graph

1. 1

   Open an asset detail page

   Start from a domain, server, device, vendor, employee, or team record in ITAM or My Organization.

2. 2

   Click Relationships or View Graph

   The graph opens with that asset as the focal node. Connected assets appear as linked nodes around it.

3. 3

   Pan and zoom the canvas

   Drag to move, scroll or pinch to zoom. Large graphs stay readable when you focus one neighborhood at a time.

4. 4

   Click a node to refocus

   Selecting a node reloads the graph centered on that asset. Use the detail action to open it in its native module.

5. 5

   Filter relationship types

   Hide noisy edges, show only runs on, assigned to, or depends on, to answer a specific question faster.

Node types

• Digital. Domains, SSL certificates, servers
• Physical. Devices and inventory items
• Vendor. Vendors and linked subscriptions (Figma, AWS, etc.)
• People. Employees and teams assigned to assets

Node color and icon reflect the asset category so you can scan a crowded graph at a glance.

Filtering & navigation

Filter by relationship kind to reduce noise on large graphs, especially useful when a server connects to dozens of devices. Click a node to make it the focal point and reload connected edges. Double-click or use the detail action to jump into the asset's native ITAM or org screen.
