Create a pipeline

Upload a YAML file to create a pipeline. The first file you upload becomes the pipeline’s default version.

Before you begin

You need a role with create permission on the pipeline service and a .yaml file written in Argo Workflows format or compiled from the Kubeflow Pipelines SDK. Use steps that each run one container: a file that uses containerSet is refused. For a starting file, select See Example on the create page, which shows a Hello World pipeline in both formats, or copy the one in Get started with Pipelines.

Create the pipeline

1. In the side menu, under PRODUCTS, select Pipeline, then Create Pipeline.
2. Leave Create a new pipeline selected.
3. In Pipeline Name, keep the generated name or type your own, up to 30 characters.
4. (Optional) In Description, add up to 300 characters.
5. In Upload Pipeline File, add one .yaml file.
6. Select Create Pipeline.

The pipeline is listed in Manage Pipelines. Its Pipeline Type is Argo for an Argo Workflows file, Kubeflow for a Kubeflow Pipelines file, and None otherwise. When you create the first pipeline in a project, TIR also sets up an object storage bucket and an access key for the project.

For help with a file that is refused, see Troubleshooting Pipelines.

To run the pipeline, create a run. When the file changes later, create a version instead of replacing the pipeline.
