Importing DTP Pipelines

You can import a new JSON version of an existing Data Transformation pipeline. This is frequently done to import a pipeline from a non-production environment into a production environment.

Before importing a pipeline, you must first download the pipeline using the steps in Downloading DTP Pipelines.

Note:

You cannot import a pipeline that already exists in the environment. Before importing a pipeline, verify that this pipeline does not already exist in the environment. If so, delete the pipeline before importing the new version.
To import a pipeline, follow these steps:
  1. Navigate to the DTP Pipeline Designer page.
  2. Click Import. The Import pane opens.
  3. Enter the required version of the pipeline to import in the Version field. You can also use the arrows to select the version number.
    The Version number provided should be the same as that in the downloaded .JSON file.
  4. Drag and Drop the .JSON file of the pipeline to import into the box. You can also click the Drag and Drop box to browse to the location of the .JSON file. The pipeline should have the following naming convention: fileName . filenameformat : pipelineName_versionNumber.json

    Note:

    You can only import the .JSON file of a DTP pipeline.
  5. Click Import. The pipeline is imported and added to the My Pipelines list.
