Designer Toolbar

The Designer toolbar contains several controls to work with your pipelines. You can click the down arrow on the right-side of the toolbar to collapse it. Click the up arrow to expand it.

The following table describes the icons and their functions:


Group	Icons	Description
Build	Pipeline	Create a new pipeline. Learn more.
Build	MCP Server	Configure an MCP server. Learn more.
Execution	Execute	Run the pipeline. When you execute a pipeline, it goes through a four-stage process that orchestrates data integration, transformation, and processing. Learn more.
	Validate	Validates the pipeline. Any unsaved changes will be saved before validation. Clicking the button while a validation is in process cancels that validation. The button displays a checkmark when validation is complete. Shift-clicking the button will clear the cache before validating. Learn more. Saving changes to informational fields, such as Label, Notes, and Tags in a Snap's configuration dialog, does not trigger re-validation of the Snap. Attention: Behavior change Previously, every save in the Snap configuration triggered a full validation cycle, regardless of the fields modified. With the September 4.45.1.0 Release, the Snap does not trigger re-validation when the informational fields (Label, Notes, Tags), are modified and saved. If any configuration or functional fields are modified in the same save, full validation is done as before.
	Stats	As a pipeline executes, the statistics are updated periodically so that you can monitor its progress. Learn more.
Configuration	Properties	Properties used to configure a pipeline. Click this icon to view or modify the properties. Learn more.
	Task	A Task in SnapLogic makes your pipelines operational and production-ready. You can create Scheduled, Triggered, and Ultra tasks in your pipelines.
	Snaplex	Select a Snaplex on which to run the pipeline. Learn more.
Version control	Versions	Creates versions of the Pipeline. Learn more.
	Compare	Compare the current Pipeline with the target Pipeline. Learn more.

It also saves the metadata, such as Pipeline structure and layout, Pipeline properties and settings, and any notes or documentation attached.
