Run Data Processing Engine Definitions

View supported editions.

Run a definition from the builder to process specific input variable values to test and validate writeback results. You can also run the definition in debug mode from the builder to troubleshoot on a filtered subset of records and view intermediate outputs without performing a final writeback.

• Run and Troubleshoot a Data Processing Engine Definition from the Builder
  Running a Data Processing Engine (DPE) definition from the builder is a powerful way to test and validate your data transformations before you create flows to run the definition on a schedule or as part of a business process. When you start a run from the builder, select debug modes to troubleshoot definitions on a filtered subset of records and view intermediate outputs without performing a final writeback.
• Run a Data Processing Engine Definition in Flows
  After you activate a Data Processing Engine definition, run it as part of a business flow or create a flow to run only a definition. You can also run a definition in a scheduled flow.
• Pause and Resume a Flow After a Data Processing Engine Definition Is Run
  You can design a flow that has elements that are dependent on the results written back by a Data Processing Engine definition that's run in the same flow. Pause a flow using a Wait element when the definition is running and resume the flow after the run is complete.
• Cancel a Data Processing Engine Definition Run
  You can cancel Data Processing Engine definition runs that are in progress before they start writing back results to the target objects. Cancel runs that have been running for a long time or runs started by mistake.
