Aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for database documentation propagation. Embodiments include scanning a log comprising a plurality of database queries to identify one or more database queries of the plurality of database queries, the one or more database queries being associated with generating a new table of a database based on information in an existing table of the database. Embodiments include generating, based on the one or more database queries identified during the scanning, a directed acyclic graph (DAG) comprising: a first vertex representing the existing table; a second vertex representing the new table; and a directed edge connecting the first vertex to the second vertex. Embodiments include obtaining documentation associated with the existing table. Embodiments include propagating, based on the DAG, at least a subset of the documentation associated with the existing table to the new table.
