Pipelines Overview

Video walkthrough

What this page is

The pipeline page is where you operate a single pipeline. Runs, assets, backfills, lineage, and manual actions all live here.

Open a pipeline

Two ways from the Overview page:

• Click a pipeline in the left sidebar.
• Open Catalogs → Pipelines and pick one.

Runs

The bottom panel lists previous runs. You can:

• Filter by status.
• Mark a run as successful or failed.
• Rerun all assets, or rerun only failed jobs.

Assets

The Assets tab lists every asset in the pipeline with its type, owner, schedule, and last run state.

Backfills

The Backfills tab shows every backfill that's been created. Click one to see the intervals, the jobs, the date range, status, and a progress bar.

Lineage

The lineage panel shows how assets connect. Click any asset to jump to it. Expand to full screen for larger pipelines.

Pipeline details

The right panel shows:

• Name, schedule, start date, owner
• Last commit from the connected repo
• Run durations - recent runs at a glance, so failures stand out
• Connections used by this pipeline
• Activity - a log of manual actions taken by users

New run

The New run button (top right) triggers a manual run. Options:

• Toggle full refresh.
• Add notes and tags - they show up in the activity log.
• Run a single interval, or create multiple jobs across intervals.

Backfills

• Auto split by schedule - one job per scheduled interval. A 23-day range on a daily schedule produces 23 jobs.
• Manual split - pick the interval and the number of splits. Useful for processing data in chunks.

Status

• Next run sits next to the New run button. Hover for local, UTC, and ISO time.
• The pipeline's status and timestamp (UTC) are at the top.

Pipeline menu

The menu (top right) lets you disable or delete the pipeline.

Now that you know the page, learn how to enable a pipeline so it runs on schedule.
