Triage priority

N/A

Proposed functionality

On netbox there are several places where objects are grouped and they have a parent or children. For such structures, like 'sites', 'tenants', 'contacts' we can build a dependancy graph and it can be visualised.
I assume, it can be an additional tab, where this dependancy is drawn.
I have found some article, where there was a graph for db dependancy, so probably it can be done similar to object representation.

Should look something like this:

Use case

We can view a relationship for objects. Sometimes netbox can be used as a place to store org structure contacs and it will help to display a structure of a company

I'm afraid this is out of scope for NetBox core, but I encourage you to consider building a plugin to implement this functionality.
