Editing a Data Flow

Edit the name and description of a data flow in Data Integration, and edit the configuration of any operator, including parameters and connections between operators.

You can also make a copy of the changes by saving to a new data flow.

    1. Open the project or folder that contains the data flow that you want to edit.

      For the steps to open the details page of a project or folder, see Viewing the Details of a Project or Viewing the Details of a Folder.

    2. On the project or folder details page, click Data flows.
    3. In the list of data flows, select View details from the Actions menu of the data flow.

      The designer opens in a tab. On the canvas, the Operators panel and Properties panel are open.

    4. Make the changes as needed. For information about designing a data flow, see Creating a Data Flow.
    5. Save periodically while you work in the designer by clicking one of the following buttons:
      • Save: Commits changes since your last save. You can continue editing after saving.
      • Save and close: Commits changes, closes the designer, and returns you to the Data flows list on the project or folder details page.
      • Save as: Commits changes (since your last save) and saves to a copy instead of overwriting the existing data flow. You can provide a name for the copy and select a different project or folder for the copy, or save the copy in the same project or folder as the existing data flow.
    6. When you finish editing, click Save and close.

    You might have to republish integration tasks that reference the edited data flow to ensure that the latest design is used in your integration solutions. See Publishing to a Data Integration Application.

  • Use the oci data-integration data-flow update command and required parameters to update a data flow:

    oci data-integration data-flow update [OPTIONS]

    For a complete list of flags and variable options for CLI commands, see the Command Line Reference.

  • Run the UpdateDataFlow operation to update a data flow.
