Pipes

A pipe is a workspace or canvas where you can perform data transformation and analytics and specify the source and destination.

There are two kinds of pipes that you can work with; Big pipe and Standard pipe. For more information on pipes, see the Types of pipes documentation.

In the Pipes module, you can perform the following actions on each pipe. Click the menu.png icon:

  • View pipe

  • View charts

  • Share pipe

  • Schedule

  • Export

  • Copy

  • Set thumbnail

  • Move to folder

  • Delete

To update your pipe, click Edit.

Note

This action takes you directly to the pipe.

Sorting

You can sort your pipes in different ways:

  • Created on

  • Name

Sort each filter in either ascending or descending order.

Pipe folders

Pipe folders give you a space to organize and manage your pipes.

When you open the Pipes module, there is a default  All  folder in the Folders section. This folder contains every pipe available. If you choose to move a pipe to another folder, you can use the menu to move it or drag and drop to a new folder.

You can also edit folder names or delete a folder.

Caution

Be careful when you delete a folder. All of the sub-folders and pipes associated with the folder that you want to delete are also deleted.
