include_lineage
Set to True to fetch comprehensive lineage (tables, notebooks, jobs). Defaults to False. May take longer to retrieve but provides rich context for understanding data dependencies and enabling code exploration.

include_lineage is exposed by the MCP Databricks Server MCP server. Add the server to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf and others), and the include_lineage tool becomes available to the model automatically. See the full listing for setup details and every tool this server provides.
