Deploy

Deploy applies data definition language for your pipeline: create and alter tables, views, and columns generated from Node Types and Create Templates.

Deploy is required when you:

• Build a new pipeline.
• Add Nodes or change column structure.
• Update Node Type definitions that affect object shape.

In a Workspace, deploy is labeled Create and follows Workspace rules, including drop and recreate for some structural changes. In an Environment, deploy uses Environment rules, often ALTER and cleanup of removed objects.

You must deploy before you Refresh. Structure comes first, then data.

See Understanding Deploy, Refresh, and Jobs for the full lifecycle.
