  • It's deployed behind a feature flag, disabled by default.
  • It's disabled on GitLab.com.

Hovering on a job highlights its needs relationships:

If the configuration does not have any needs relationships, then no lines are drawn because each job depends only on the previous stage being completed successfully.

You can only preview one gitlab-ci.yml file at a time. Configuration imported with includes is ignored and not included in the visualization.
