Azure Data Factory UI Design Update for Container Activities

This post has been republished via RSS; it originally appeared at: New blog articles in Microsoft Tech Community.

In ADF's pipeline designer, there are several activities that actually contain other activities, thereby acting as a "container". In order to help you, as a pipeline designer, understand what activities are occurring inside of your IF, UNTIL, FOREACH, SWITCH, we are updating the UI from this experience:

To a more informational and richer UX that will show a small set of the activities inside the container right on the primary pipeline canvas, with the option to show all:

We hope that this experience will provide a pipeline UX that is easier to visualize and quickly understand.

 

Our intent is to release this UX update week of Feb 24, 2020, as part of our regular UI update process.

 

Please send us your feedback & thank you!
