Import and export a data pipeline
You can import and export a data pipeline as a ZIP file to migrate it to a different environment. By migrating only tested data pipelines and assets, you can reduce the risk of data corruption in higher environments.
Key features
- The imported data pipeline retains all the original metadata, such as source and target endpoint with configuration, transformations, schedule and load type.
- The name of the imported data pipeline is based on the ZIP file name. When importing, if a data pipeline exists with the same name as the ZIP file, a number will be appended to the name in brackets.
- By default, the synchronization schedule of the imported data pipeline will be disabled.
Export a data pipeline
To export a data pipeline:
- In the dashboard card view or list view, click the three dot menu and select Export. The data pipeline downloads as a ZIP file on your local machine.

Import a data pipeline
