The Paragraph Lineage module provides functionality to display a paragraph entity along with its ancestors. The practical use for this is to be able to create a view that displays a file or media entity's connection to paragraphs and from there, to the paragraph's lineage to a node, term, user, or other entity with an administrator-only access entity.*.canonical route.
This module does not alter paragraphs or other entities. It only provides read access to existing entities. As a read-only module it does not pose any known security risk.
The justification for creating this module was to allow site admins to evaluate the media usage, consolidate media files, and to make sure that media with sensitive content could be managed correctly.
Features
- Render a paragraph entity using the default view mode.
- Display the lineage of a paragraph entity.

Additional Requirements
You have to have paragraphs installed and views enabled.
