Entities depending on each other, visualization and filtering
Hi Generic_name ,
Based on my test, I think it is proper for the requirement to use the visual of Sankey. And you can filter the components with the visual level filter.

Hey v-xuding-msft,
thank you for your reply and for encouraging my approach to use a sankey diagram for visualization.
Unfortunately my requirement to filtering is a little different to the solution you proposed as I need to show all the connections for an entity. I have extended my example from the starting post to provide a better understanding to my case as it may have been unclear:
So, the new relations look like this:
| depending on | component |
| a | b |
| b | c |
| d | c |
| c | a |
| c | e |
| f | g |
| g | h |
And the result when filtering should show something like this:
| filter on "show all predecessors of" | Nodes shown | Filter on "show all successors of" | Nodes shown |
| a | c,d,b | a | b,c,e |
| b | a,c,d | b | c,e,a |
| c | b,a,d | c | e,a,b |
| d | d | c,e,a,b | |
| e | c,d,b,a | e | |
| f | f | g,h | |
| g | f | g | h |
| h | g,f | h |
Does anyone have an idea how to do this?
