How to Create a Pipeline

Configure two or more Snaps linked together to orchestrate a flow of data between end points.

Step-by-step guide

To create a new pipeline:

1. In Designer, click on the [+] icon to the left of the tabs. The Configure New Pipeline dialog opens.
   
2. Modify the Label (pipeline name) and project for the pipeline if necessary. 
   Unless otherwise noted, the names of any asset or project is limited to UTF-8 alphanumeric characters and these punctuation characters !"#$%&'()*+,-.:;<=>?@[\]^_`{|}~.
3. If you know of parameters to define for this pipeline, you can do so now or later through the Pipeline Properties dialog.
   
4. If you are using an expression library, you can add it now or later through the Pipeline Properties dialog.
5. If you have the Spark feature, you also have the option to designate this pipeline as a Spark pipeline.
6. Click Save.
   

You now have a blank canvas on which to build your pipeline.
