How to check if the pipeline exists in the Azure Data Factory?

Time:04-14

I have a requirement to dynamically run a data factory pipeline based on the the master pipeline parameter value. The parameter value is in the pipeline name. For example, My main pipeline name is : MasterLoadData and my child pipelines are: LoadDataCAN, LoadDataEUR, LoadDataNYK etc The location names CAN, EUR, NYK etc are the parameters.

Each of these pipelines performs unique functionality. I have multiple pipelines (approx 30) in this way. Instead of hardcoding the pipelines in the switch activity, I would like to use the web activity and dynamically construct the pipeline name and then run it.

I want to be able to verify if the child pipeline exists before I trigger the web activity. Is there a way to do this?

Any help is appreciated.

CodePudding user response:

You get the list of pipeline names in your data factory by calling this HTTP request.

  1. Get the list of pipelines using web activity.

URL: https://management.azure.com/subscriptions/{subscriptionId}/resourceGroups/{resourceGroupName}/providers/Microsoft.DataFactory/factories/{factoryName}/pipelines?api-version=2018-06-01

Method: GET

  1. Pass the output of web activity to a ForEach activity to loop each pipeline.

  2. Inside ForEach activity, you can validate the current item (pipeline name: item().name) and perform the required activities.

You can refer to this link for detailed explanation.
