How do you establish an order of events, or steps, in a snaplogic pipeline

I'd like to establish an order of events in my snaplogic pipeline. I'd like to perform (for example) a SQL Execute snap, and then after that, another different snap. There's no input/output data relationship between these snaps. I just want one to proceed first, and then after that, the next one. Is there a snap, or some other feature of the tool, that allows you to establish an arbitrary order of snaps?

Solution

  • You have to connect the snaps in sequence if you want to establish an order of events in your SnapLogic pipeline.

    For most implementations, (say) if you want to execute Snap B after Snap A, put a Tail snap between them (connecting Snap A and Snap B). This will ensure that Snap B is executed after Snap A.
