The Pipeline is in Designer, where you can modify it further.

Guidelines for References

Because the imported Pipeline might have references to accounts or other assets, you should consider the following guidelines for repurposing Pipelines.

  • If the reference is to an asset in the shared folder, then do not modify the reference.
  • If the reference is to an asset in a different project, then consider the following conditions:

...

You can import a Pipeline that was previously exported to a .slp file. Importing a Pipeline does not automatically bring in the SnapLogic Assets referenced by the Pipeline. Follow these best practices for referenced Assets:

  • If a Pipeline has one or more child Pipelines, import the child Pipeline before importing the parent Pipeline.
  • If a Pipeline contains references to other Pipelines, Files, Accounts, or Tasks (which can be called from a Snap), handle them as follows:
    • Leave references to Assets in the global shared folder as is.
    • For Assets in a Project other than the destination project:
      • If the reference to a File is an absolute path, do not change it.
      • If the Asset is available in the destination Project, change the reference to point to the destination project after importing the Pipeline.
      • If the destination Project does not have an Asset with the same label, but one exists in its shared folder or the global shared folder, change the reference to the appropriate location after importing the Pipeline.
      • If the Asset has a different label in the destination Project, change the reference before importing the Pipeline.
