Built-In Link Type Distribution
R2026bMetric ID
modeldesign.TraceabilityAnalysis[slcomp.BuiltinLinkTypeDistribution]
Description
This metric returns the number of requirement links for each link type for each unit in your project. Use this metric to understand how requirements trace to design elements and to assess the distribution of link types across your units. The metric analyzes built-in link types, not custom link types.
Supported Artifacts
This metric collects metric results for Units in the project. To control what the dashboard classifies as a unit, see Categorize Models in Hierarchy as Components or Units.
Collection
To collect data for this metric, execute the metric engine with the metric ID.
metric_engine = metric.Engine;
results = execute(metric_engine,"modeldesign.TraceabilityAnalysis[slcomp.BuiltinLinkTypeDistribution]")View the metric result values for a specific unit.

To collect all traceability metrics in a single call, use empty bracket syntax. Use the
MetricID property to distinguish between
results.
results = execute(metric_engine,"modeldesign.TraceabilityAnalysis[]")Results
The metric returns an array of objects, one for each unit in the project.
Use the metric.ResultValue property of the metric result object to view the metric
result values. Use the ScopeId and ScopeAlias
properties to identify which unit the result belongs to.
The ScopeAlias property returns the name of the unit.
The Value property returns a structure with these fields, where each
field contains the number of links of that type:
Relate— Number of links with theRelatetypeImplement— Number of links with theImplementtypeVerify— Number of links with theVerifytypeDerive— Number of links with theDerivetypeRefine— Number of links with theRefinetypeConfirm— Number of links with theConfirmtype
