Overview

The SnapLogic Cloud Pattern Catalog is a searchable collection of Pattern Pipelines. Pattern Pipelines are pre-built and reusable integration pipelines that can be imported and configured through a step-by-step wizard. In most cases, you need to provide account information for the specified platforms and the data sources or files to use in the process when you import the pipelines.

Accessing Pattern Pipelines

You can access specific patternsthrough hot links. This helps you to quickly find and utilize the patterns you need with just a click. Hot links are easily identifiable and ensure reliable redirection to the correct pattern page, enhancing your overall browsing experience.

Searching for Pattern Pipelines in the SnapLogic Cloud Pattern Catalog

The SnapLogic Cloud Pattern Catalog enables you to search, preview, and import Pattern Pipelines that are provided by SnapLogic. You can also use them in your existing Pipelines pipelines by copying the Snaps in the newly-created Pipeline pipeline into an existing PipelinepipelineWhen you type a keyword in the search box, SnapLogic invokes Iris Integration Assistant, which retrieves all the matching Pattern Pipelines in the SnapLogic Cloud Pattern Catalog and in your Org, displaying them within their respective projects.

Note
  • To view matching Pipelinespipelines, you must enter a search term in the Search field box. SnapLogic only displays matching Pattern Pipelines; hence, browsing the Pattern Catalog without a Search term will not yield any results. If you have enabled Asset Palette, then you must hit Enter key after entering the Search term in the Search field box.

  • If you do not have access to a Pattern Pipeline that matches your search criterion, the Pattern Catalog does not display anything in the search results.

...

  1. Log in to SnapLogic Designer and click the Patterns tab or the Patterns button in the Assets Palette. The Pattern Catalog opens.

  2. In the search box, enter the keyword with which you want to search for Pattern Pipelines. Press the Enter key if you have enabled Asset Palette to begin the Search. Iris now runs a search using the full or partial keyword you specified and separately lists out the number of Pattern Pipelines found in the Cloud Pattern Catalog and within each project space in your Org.
