  • Validate & Execute. Performs limited execution of the Snap and generates a data preview during Pipeline validation, then performs full execution of the Snap (unlimited records) during Pipeline runtime.
  • Execute only. Performs full execution of the Snap during Pipeline execution without generating preview data.
  • Disabled. Disables the Snap and all Snaps downstream from it.

Event Management

We are using an example of event-based management, where we have chain of event Snaps in this Pipeline, designated to perform specific tasks pertaining to their functionalities.

In this example, our Pipeline activities are as follows:

...

  1. Creating an event with required input using

...

  1.  the Create Event Snap.

...

  1. Mapping the event’s information using Mapper Snap.

...

  1. Updating an event using Update Event Snap.

...

  1. Listing the events in the calendar using List Events Snap.

...

  1. Mapping the event’s information using Mapper Snap.

...

  1. Deleting an existing event from the calendar using Delete Event Snap.
