Architecture Map Block
Embed an architecture map showing end-to-end data flow from sources through projections to APIs and UIs. Interactive grid layout with navigable nodes and step flows.
Architecture map blocks embed end-to-end data flow diagrams directly into your documentation pages. Each map shows the complete journey of data from external sources through the canonical model, projections, APIs, and user interfaces. The map uses a grid-based layout where nodes represent system components and edges show data flow direction, giving readers a single view of the entire data architecture.
