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. In the Data flows section of a project or folder details page, find the data flow that you want to edit. If you need help finding the Data flows section of a project or folder details page, see Listing Data Flows.
    2. From the Actions menu (Actions menu) for the data flow, select View details.

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

    3. Make the changes as needed. For information about designing a data flow, see Creating a Data Flow.
    4. Save periodically while you work in the designer by selecting one of the following buttons:
      • Save: Commits changes since the 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 the 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.
    5. When you finish editing, select Save and close.

    You might have to republish integration tasks that reference the edited data flow to ensure that the latest design is used. 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.
