Update Data Pipeline using Copy Assistant Wizard

[MonztaInc]

Hi there

I've created my Data Pipeline using the Copy Assistant Wizard. Once it's created, is there a way to edit the pipeline using the wizard again? 

Scenario: 

I built a new pipeline using Copy Assistant Wizard to ingest 10 tables.

Then, ran Pipeline to ingest data. 

Now I want to update pipeline to add more tables using the Copy Assistant Wizard. But I cannot see where/how to do this. 

Is this possible yet? 

If not, how does one go about adding more tables to the same copy activity? or do I need new copy activities every time I want to add tables? 

Thanks!

hi @Anonymous 

Thanks for the response. 

As part of the Copy Assistant Wizard, I can select multiple tables. 

This then wraps the Copy Activity in a ForEach

Any reason that the Copy Wizard shouldn't be used to update the Copy Activity? (besides the fact the functionality doesn't exist)

If I've got 100's of tables, I don't want to have a 100's of copy activities. 

Also don't want to have to re-create the Copy activity each time as this has it's own drawbacks.

Thanks for the link! It's a work around, but will give it a try and see if it fits into the workflow. 

Would much prefer the copy wizard to be able to update the copy activities. 

Much appreciated.

Hi @MonztaInc 
Thanks for using Fabric Community. 
As I understand you are using Copy Assistant Wizard to ingest 10 tables. How are you doing this?
Can you please attach the screenshots of the pipeline? This would help me in understanding the issue better. 

However, the Copy Assistant Wizard does not allow you to add more tables to the same copy activity. You can only edit the existing settings of the copy activity, such as the source, destination, mapping, and performance. 
You should create a new copy activity for each table that you want to add to your pipeline.
