Can I control which parts of a pipeline get run?

[Royce_Simpson]

Let's say I have a single pipeline (is that the right term?) with many input layers that I'm converting to hosted feature layers.  Is it possible to ad-hoc disable parts of that process without breaking connections?  So, let's say I have 10 input layers and 10 output hosted feature layers.  Right now I only want to run it on 5 of those.  Then tomorrow, I want to come in and activate those 5 but deactivate the other 5, then run again.

I'm hoping not to have to build individual pipelines for each of these 10 translations, but I want that fine granularity of control and will do that if I have to.

Thanks.

Hi Royce, thanks for the question!

To run a subset of the outputs in a data pipeline, you can select the desired outputs then click the "Run" button in the context menu that appears over the output element (red arrow).

Multiple outputs can be selected by holding "Shift" and clicking on each one individually, or by dragging the mouse on the canvas over the elements with the "Select elements" interaction enabled (gray cursor button in the top right).

Woo-hoo, that's awesome. 

Thanks.
