How to create a pipeline

Learn how to create, configure, and build a pipeline on the Digibee Integration Platform.

Pipelines are created within the Canvas environment. Use the following steps to learn how to create, configure, and build your pipeline.

Creating the pipeline

Follow these steps to create a pipeline:

1. On the Build page, click on the Pipeline tab.

2. Click on the Create button in the upper right corner.

3. Select the Pipeline option.

Configuring the pipeline

Inside the pipeline, click the gear icon in the upper right corner of the screen (next to the Save button) to begin configuring the pipeline.

A new page with a configuration form will open on the right side of the screen. Fill in the fields:

• Description: the description of the pipeline.

• “Is it multi-instance?”: activate this option if the pipeline to be created is multi-instance. To learn more about this feature, read the Multi-Instance documentation.

• Sensitive field: data fields that should be obfuscated in the pipeline logs with the character set "***". The special character hyphen [-] is allowed in the name of the sensitive field. Other special characters, accents, and cedilla [ç] are not allowed.

If you configure sensitive fields in the pipeline configuration, they only apply to this specific pipeline. If you want to configure sensitive fields for all pipelines in your realm, please read the Sensitive fields policy documentation.

• InSpec: pipeline input.

• OutSpec: pipeline output.

Once the pipeline is configured, you can start building the flow.

Building the flow in the pipeline

Follow these steps to create a flow in a pipeline:

1. Move the mouse pointer over the trigger already available in the Canvas and click on the Configuration button (represented by a gear icon).

2. Select a trigger from the available options. The trigger starts the execution of the pipeline, such as an event or an email.

3. Configure the selected trigger and click on Confirm to save your changes.

4. After configuring the trigger, click on the + button to begin creating your flow. Refer to the Smart Connector User Experience documentation for more details about available connection options.

5. While building your flow, use the Execution panel for testing and the Debug mode for troubleshooting.

Pipelines are not saved automatically. You need to click the Save button each time you want to save your changes. The first time you save, provide the Name, Description, and Project to which the pipeline belongs.

The Canvas, the environment where pipelines are built, offers several navigation options. To learn more, read the Canvas documentation.
