Super good teacher! I followed you on your first video and made a copy activity in a pipeline. Now I will try parameters and triggers. Very fun and inspiring!
I'm enjoying all your videos, what I like about it most is how you keep cut to the chase and good examples, easy to follow and learn, awesome contents, keep it up!
Really appreciate all your efforts and after watching your more than 10 video's I have successfully implemented a small project on ADF in my organization and it is because of your videos' so really obliged Adam ...keep posting such nice video's. Thank you so muchhh
Hi Adam, Wonderful Video and you have explained everything extremely well. This is your first video I watched and now I have decided to watch all your videos (Even the topics I had already covered)
Very nice explanatory video! Thanks first of all! Question: is there a way to create dynamic event based trigger? Meaning that the trigger will not be hooked up to a certain static path within a blob container but a dynamic one? Like for example with DataSets you can use parameters. Can we make a trigger be looking inside a container whose path is specified through parameter? Or maybe can we put a regex in the path?
Thanks! I'm not sure what you ask is possible because triggers are evaluated without context of the pipeline as they are the one who will invoke pipeline later on. But I personally never researched the topic that much. I usually tend to trigger based on a proper filter and then call ADF. If I need more control then I use logic apps which call data factory.
@@AdamMarczakYT thanks for the answer! I understand what you mean, triggers shouldn't have context of pipeline. I was wondering if there was a way to parameterize the folder where the trigger loos into. Just for reference what I mean: stackoverflow.com/questions/62873941/using-parameters-to-locate-file-during-trigger-creation-in-azure-data-factory thank you anyway for your answer here!
@@henrytigro Hey Enrico, I wonder if you could resolve this case. I'm looking for similar case, where my path is based on date (yyyy/mm/dd) so I need to input that on the path to be triggered.
Really good content. Thank you. I have a quick question, if my pipeline has a date parameter, how do I pass the current date from a scheduled trigger to the pipeline parameter?
Hello All, One thing that I ran into which might trip up people is that prior to writing the Event Trigger, make sure that you 'Register' the Event Grid service. Otherwise, you will get an error like I did. The error message is quite clear though, so you should not have any problems even if you forget to do.
I could have sworn I mentioned this during the video. Nonetheless, good tip Bharat. You can register event grid by going Subscriptions > your sub > Resource Providers blade > search for EventGrid and hit register. Thanks for letting everyone know, I appreciate it. :)
Hi Adam, It was a very good intro for triggers in ADF.. What if I want to schedule trigger only on the selected dates in a year... lets say I want to schedule a trigger to run on Feb, March, june, July, Oct, Nov months on the specified dates... how can we achieve it..
No out of the box feature handles this. So you can make simple logic app on daily schedule, with a small condition checking whether this day is on the list of scheduled dates to run. If it is then trigger adf.
Very nice video! Thanks! I have one question: its possible use event-based trigger to run only monday to saturday? I don't want to run on sundays.. thanks
Hey Adam, this was an awesome video !!!. Keep posting videos like this ... I have my project requirement, where I need to get documents (Unstructured Data like .pdf, .ppt, .docx, .xlsx etc.,) from SharePoint online site in an on-going basis. Our solution, was to use Logic Apps to get the sharepoint content. We have two scenarios while getting the documents from sharepoint. 1. First time extract - Where we will get all the sharepoint documents into Azure Blob Storage. For this we planned to use Logic Apps with HTTP trigger which will gets invoked from ADF as one time activity. 2. Incremental extract - Where we need to get only the new documents and the documents for which content has updated in sharepoint. Do you have any suggestions for implementing the above 2nd scenario. Thanks for your support.
Hey. Glad you enjoyed it. For second scenario just use SharePoint "file added or modified properties only" trigger. It will trigger logic app every time there is new file or modified file on SharePoint.
Hello and thanks for the content: I have a question about Trigger on Event. Is it possible to delay the trigger by 5 mins after the event? In case I upload many files in the storage, I would wait that the last one is loaded. Many thanks
Really good video Adam, thanks for sharing, i got 1 question, In source we have given select a1 from DEV_EDW.tablename, (DEV_EDW is for development), For test it should be like select a1 from QA_EDW.tablename, for this will be creating parameter, should we use trigger also for this, please reply..
Hi Adam, I have a requirement I need to run a pipeline at 2 PM Central Time (US) daily but since scheduling is done at UTC time which is like 7 PM UTC or 8 PM UTC depending on day light saving. Requirement is to make it dynamic so that I don't need to manually change schedule in production.
Hey! Currently only UTC is supported (doc ref: docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/data-factory/how-to-create-schedule-trigger#schema-overview ). You can use Logic Apps instead, schedule trigger there accepts timezone parameter.
Thank you very much for the video Adam. I have a pipeline that combines multiple CSV files into one CSV file. I added the event trigger when the files are uploaded to the blob storage. However, it fires the trigger multiple times. What do I need to do to make the trigger only fires once? Thank you very much in advance.
Thanks again ! for the wonderful video. While checking Event triggers I ran into the error saying EventGrid is not registered, but when I checked my subscription I can see it is registered. what could be the problem, please guide..
Adam, Do you have any videos that show updating an Azure Table Storage within a Pipeline? I have a Logic-App where I move a file from an FTP location to Blob Storage and during that I also write a record to Table storage with a FileName, Date, and a Status column. At the end of my Logic-App I create a Pipeline Run to import the file contents from Blob storage into an Azure database table. After this I would like to update my Status column in the Table storage matching on FileName that the file has been processed. Was hoping you have something that covers this.
Really good video Adam, thanks for share. In my case when I do a test with 10 files at the same time and I look at the monitor tab, ADF executes the pipeline sequentially. I have increased the property "Concurrency " of the pipeline, but it didn't work, any suggestion?
@@AdamMarczakYT thanks for answering. In my case, the problem was the number of files I used in the POC. I started with 10, later I decided to use 100, which was then when I got the parallel execution. I found it is the behaviour of the "event grid system topic" behind the scene.
Hey, Event Grid is behind the scenes. You don't provision it or configure it manually, it gets done by creating trigger. You only need to ensure that resource provider for Event Grid is registered on subscription level.
Hi Adam, really good content as usual! May I please ask how to handle NA when upserting blob csv file to SQL DB? I am using ADF for ETL, and some data frames contain missing values (some columns are all NA in some extreme cases), and When I upsert new data frames to SQL it kept throwing error messages {errorCode": "2200", ErrorCode=UserErrorInvalidDataValue,'Type=Microsoft.DataTransfer.Common.Shared.HybridDeliveryException,Message=Column 'CHP_Kpa' contains an invalid value 'NA'.,} Could we apply parameterized content to RScript as an input? For instance, I need to run Rscript on each csv file inside a blob container, and I am using batch service. Recall your lookup video to get a list of csv files in a container, and could we apply this lookup results as a targetFileList in my R code? If you have any ideas on this would be much appreciated!!!
You can use checkbox to treat NA values as nulls in the data factory. This should help. Otherwise you would need to fix your data model. You can also use Mapping Data Flow (I have video on this) to fix the data before uploading. If you run R script via databricks, then yes you can pass parameters to databricks from data factory. docs.microsoft.com/bs-latn-ba/azure/data-factory/transform-data-using-databricks-notebook thanks for tuning in!
Hi Adam! Thank you for such a great tutorials, very helpful and clear. Please can you explain why I have a problem with signing in to my data factory on the 4th demo with Logic App, it is a moment in the video at 18:59 where Azure requires to sign in to create a connection to ADF. I try to sign in with my admin name for the application, and it gives me the error message "Failed with error: 'The browser is closed.'. Please sign in again.
Awesome. Thanks for this session. Any suggestion what if I want to run the pipeline only after some other pipeline finished. (Like C pipeline should start only after A and B got done) and all pipeline are separate/individual, so on demand I can run individual also. How can we make event based trigger? Please suggest.
Hi adam. I got an error while publishing the pipeline for the storage event "Failed to get subscription status on storage events for event trigger" I'm using 12 months free trail.
Check out if you have EventGrid resource provider registered on your subscription.docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-resource-manager/management/resource-providers-and-types?WT.mc_id=AZ-MVP-5003556
Hi Adam thanks for the tutorial While creating param for pipeline I don't see parameter section in the current azure version Im trying to get csv from blob n store it in sql database using event trigger
Thanks for watching. Make sure to 'unclick' the selected action by clicking on the blank space of the pipeline so that parameters appear below. If you have action selected then panels are for that action.
Great videos! One question is that so far all the data ingestions using ADF has been moving data within the Azure system, how do I move data from a public data source , in my case the NOAA's public numerical weather forecasts products, into Azure? the data will have two be saved on hourly basis when new forecasts are available. Is ADF still the correct tool for this?
Thanks. I don't know NOAA but assuming it's just some web API you can try HTTP connector as data source for copy activity. reference: docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/data-factory/connector-http If this would be too complex to achieve my advise would be to use logic apps to pull this data to blob and then trigger ADF to process it.
Hi Adam ur videos are very helpful. Thanks. I have a Q. I have an ADF pipeline which accepts parameters, so if want to schedule a trigger which passes these parameters to the pipeline how should I achieve this?
When you create a schedule (trigger) for pipeline that has parameters defined it will ask you to provide parameters. If you need to pass parameters on schedule maybe try invoking it from logic app. Thanks!
@@AdamMarczakYT thanks..will try and get back. I triedediting json(trigger) and add manually.. but it does not trigger as scheduled.. let me know if you try this. Thanks much
Hi Sir, In schedule triggers What if I need to run Monday to Friday @6AM, Saturday @ 8AM and Sunday @4PM for a single pipeline.. Did I need to create 3 separate triggers and add in the Single pipeline or else in trigger json code I can have 3 schedules?
How to handle multiple files in event based triggers I.e. in your example alone with demo if you have have file called demo1.csv,demo2.csv ... how it works in event based teigger
Those will raise two separate events and create two separate logic apps runs. So if you need custom logic based on your files than I guess Azure logic apps is the best way to implement that, but it really depends. There are quite few patterns around this written on blogs.
Hi Adam, What if in the event based trigger your file got copied but it's corrupted or incomplete. How will you handle such scenario to ensure the pipeline is not triggered? Any suggestions?
Hey, files should not be corrupted after load. Maybe you made a small mistake? maybe you missed extension? Files should always copy correctly. Never seen issues like you described.
Can we parameterize the Storage account name and container name while creating the Storage event Trigger. If we can't then how will we change the names to QA and production automatically?
Great video. For anyone getting stuck publishing the event trigger, I had manually register the Event Grid resource provider. Here's the doc from Microsoft docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-resource-manager/templates/error-register-resource-provider
Thanks Christina. I think I mentioned this in the video but considering I've already got similar comment/question few times I see this should have been stressed out more, thank you for sharing with the community :)
@@AdamMarczakYT I had exactly the same problem. What is the difference between an "Event Grid System Topic" and an "Event Grid Topic"? It was the system one that had to be created to enable me to publish my ADF trigger.
@Adam, thank you. This is a really great tutorial. I have a couple of questions here, 1. Is there any way that we can hold Logic App Create Pipeline call until Data Factory pipeline operation complete 2. And can we get some value back to Logic App from Data Factory Pipeline call. Any links or sample reference doc might be more helpful. thanks in advance.
Hey thanks. For 1. you can use until loop with delay action and get pipeline run to check status . Run that until loop until status changes from running. For 2. Get pipeline run returns info about pipeline run. Not sure if the message property contains what you need. If not you can use rest api for data factory which probably can do more than connector.
@@AdamMarczakYT thank you so much for your response. Could you please explain the last statement, exposing REST API from Data Factory. As per my knowledge, The Data Factory can consume the REST API, not sure how to expose it. My use case is, I have a customer data in SAP Hana, I want to expose the data in REST API. My current approach: #1. Connected the SAP Hana DB in Datafactory and created a pipeline to move the required rows to storage #2. Invoke the pipeline from Logic App, once if the pipeline executed, I'll read the data from storage. I'm sure this is not a good way. Pls provide solution suggestion for my above use case
@@AdamMarczakYT Thanks for your quick response. I tried invoking the pipeline REST API (docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/datafactory/pipelines/createrun), it returns only pipeline ID but I wanted to return a couple of DB rows as an output.
Yes, you can implement CI/CD for ADF and update any element as you wish docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/data-factory/continuous-integration-deployment?WT.mc_id=AZ-MVP-5003556 , because ADF triggers are just objects that can be updated via ARM template docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/templates/microsoft.datafactory/2018-06-01/factories/triggers?WT.mc_id=AZ-MVP-5003556
But cosmos db isn't file hosting service. It's a NoSQL database, it does have attachment features but it's not it's main feature and should not be used as such. Can you elaborate on your question?
hi Adam, Awesome video on Azure Data Factory Triggers. I have a use-case where I am copying data from Google BigQuery using ADF. Can we use event based trigger to trigger the ADF copy-data pipeline when a table is created in BigQuery? Is that possible? - Sam
Hey! thanks Sam! I'm not expert on big query but I know ADF doesn't support events outside of blob storage at this time. What you could do on the other hand is maybe create a small logic app and query big querys REST Api for this cloud.google.com/bigquery/docs/reference/rest/ and whenever you see new dataset trigger ADF pipeline with name of the table. Also if you just want to always copy all tables from big query via ADF you can use Lookup action to list tables from bigquery and just loop over them and copy all. I don't know big query through so I'm just throwing out ideas.
@@AdamMarczakYT Thanks Adam for your prompt response. Let me explore the Logic app; I tried the Lookup action, but in my case a table gets created every day. Basically I need to query the google analytics data from ga_sessions_ table into a temp table on BigQuery side and then copy that temp table to Azure.
I did exactly this in the past by writing small function app in Azure which consumed data daily from this reporting api developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/reporting/core/v4/
Yep. Use event grid to do this. Go to blob > events on the left menu > new subscription > endpoint type storage queue. docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/event-grid/blob-event-quickstart-portal?WT.mc_id=AZ-MVP-5003556 like here just different endpoint type (webhook > queue).
I have daily email recieved with 15K records in csv from a contractor trigger method shoudl i use to pick up that file from the email. First option logic app but not sure how to develop one. What trigger method would you advice. I am thinking of power automate but not sure which method will work with which trigger method. Thanks
Yes, you can use Power Automate to get the email attachments, as the email arrives, and save them to your OneDrive or SharePoint Library. No need for Logic Apps or ADF.
Hi Adam thanks for your videos they are very useful. I have simple copy activity pipeline for which I have set up a event based trigger (when blob is updated the pipeline is executed). It works seamlessly when I upload a file into the blob manaully. But when I use logic app to extract the attachment and upload the file to blob, the copy activity fails Operation on target Copy data1 failed: ErrorCode=UserErrorInvalidColumnMappingColumnNotFound,'Type=Microsoft.DataTransfer.Common.Shared.HybridDeliveryException,Message=Column 'Employee_ID' specified in column mapping cannot be found in source data.,Source=Microsoft.DataTransfer.ClientLibrary,' The same csv file returns no error when I upload the file manually but fails when it is uploaded via the logic app
Are you sure it's exactly the same. Error suggests your column mapping is incorrect. Also try removing all mapping and create them again, maybe you missed something. I've seen this happen when I was doing trainings for others. Best course of action was quickly doing everything over, it's too hard to find issues sometimes.
I explained tumbling window at 1:35 . I did not show life demo because it is too similar to timer trigger demo. Only difference is concurrency controlling. Feel free to check the docs for more examples: docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/data-factory/tumbling-window-trigger-dependency
@@AdamMarczakYT ok but Tumbling Windows is different by defintion. It has states. I was keen to see an explanatin of it. I am wondering why you did not explain it because you normally give clear explanation of topics. thanks anyway.
MS Azure is perhaps the worst product I have ever seen. Over engineered, super slow, thousands of things to click, thousands of "X" to click just to get rid of the stupid popups built in to every single action, thousands of re-hovering over something which has a popup description where UNDER THE DESCRPTION POPUP is the 3 elipses ... that you are trying to click but you can't because when you hovered over it the FUCKING POPUP gets in the way. Just terrible. I mean UNBELIEVABLY bad product. By the way, event trigger doesn't work, throws an error and window pops up with error message but it only stays there a few seconds, and as I try to highlight select the text so I can copy/paste it to search for solution, then, AND ONLY THEN does the typical popup which stays WAY TOO LONG decide to disappear before i can copy paste it into a search. I mean this product is complete and utter fucking shit.

One question is that so far all the data ingestions using ADF has been moving data within the Azure system, how do I move data from a public data source , in my case the NOAA's public numerical weather forecasts products, into Azure? the data will have two be saved on hourly basis when new forecasts are available. Is ADF still the correct tool for this?
Thanks. I don't know NOAA but assuming it's just some web API you can try HTTP connector as data source for copy activity.
reference: docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/data-factory/connector-http
If this would be too complex to achieve my advise would be to use logic apps to pull this data to blob and then trigger ADF to process it.
@@AdamMarczakYT Thank you very much Adam! I will take a look at this. Looking forward to more videos on the different functions of the ADF!!!
Did I just see you use the same linked service for input and output? I mean I know you said they can be shared but I thought of it differently
Linked service is just connection definition. It can be used for both inputs or outputs if you have the right permissions.
Thank you for a great share.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it :)
Hi Adam ur videos are very helpful. Thanks. I have a Q. I have an ADF pipeline which accepts parameters, so if want to schedule a trigger which passes these parameters to the pipeline how should I achieve this?
When you create a schedule (trigger) for pipeline that has parameters defined it will ask you to provide parameters. If you need to pass parameters on schedule maybe try invoking it from logic app. Thanks!
@@AdamMarczakYT thanks..will try and get back. I triedediting json(trigger) and add manually.. but it does not trigger as scheduled.. let me know if you try this. Thanks much
Hi Sir, In schedule triggers What if I need to run Monday to Friday @6AM, Saturday @ 8AM and Sunday @4PM for a single pipeline.. Did I need to create 3 separate triggers and add in the Single pipeline or else in trigger json code I can have 3 schedules?
How to handle multiple files in event based triggers I.e. in your example alone with demo if you have have file called demo1.csv,demo2.csv ... how it works in event based teigger
Those will raise two separate events and create two separate logic apps runs. So if you need custom logic based on your files than I guess Azure logic apps is the best way to implement that, but it really depends. There are quite few patterns around this written on blogs.
Very cool video!!
Thanks Seb! :)
Hi Adam,
What if in the event based trigger your file got copied but it's corrupted or incomplete. How will you handle such scenario to ensure the pipeline is not triggered? Any suggestions?
Hey, files should not be corrupted after load. Maybe you made a small mistake? maybe you missed extension? Files should always copy correctly. Never seen issues like you described.
Can we parameterize the Storage account name and container name while creating the Storage event Trigger. If we can't then how will we change the names to QA and production automatically?
Great video. For anyone getting stuck publishing the event trigger, I had manually register the Event Grid resource provider. Here's the doc from Microsoft docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-resource-manager/templates/error-register-resource-provider
Thanks Christina. I think I mentioned this in the video but considering I've already got similar comment/question few times I see this should have been stressed out more, thank you for sharing with the community :)
@@AdamMarczakYT I had exactly the same problem. What is the difference between an "Event Grid System Topic" and an "Event Grid Topic"? It was the system one that had to be created to enable me to publish my ADF trigger.
subscribed!
Welcome, thanks! :)
Is there a video with custom evemt triggers?
Not yet, it's still in preview so I typically wait until I create tutorial on those
@Adam, thank you. This is a really great tutorial.
I have a couple of questions here,
1. Is there any way that we can hold Logic App Create Pipeline call until Data Factory pipeline operation complete
2. And can we get some value back to Logic App from Data Factory Pipeline call.
Any links or sample reference doc might be more helpful. thanks in advance.
Hey thanks. For 1. you can use until loop with delay action and get pipeline run to check status . Run that until loop until status changes from running. For 2. Get pipeline run returns info about pipeline run. Not sure if the message property contains what you need. If not you can use rest api for data factory which probably can do more than connector.
@@AdamMarczakYT thank you so much for your response.
Could you please explain the last statement, exposing REST API from Data Factory. As per my knowledge, The Data Factory can consume the REST API, not sure how to expose it.
My use case is,
I have a customer data in SAP Hana, I want to expose the data in REST API.
My current approach: #1. Connected the SAP Hana DB in Datafactory and created a pipeline to move the required rows to storage
#2. Invoke the pipeline from Logic App, once if the pipeline executed, I'll read the data from storage.
I'm sure this is not a good way. Pls provide solution suggestion for my above use case
Here is the reference for ADF REST API docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/datafactory/v2 you can control ADF by calling any of those methods.
@@AdamMarczakYT Thanks for your quick response. I tried invoking the pipeline REST API (docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/datafactory/pipelines/createrun), it returns only pipeline ID but I wanted to return a couple of DB rows as an output.
@@AdamMarczakYT Is there a way that we can set values to Parameters dynamically. eg: Copy the data from variable to parameters.
Thank you
excellent
Thank you! Cheers!
Can I Set Trigger Recurrence Time From DevOps Library Group?
Is it possible to update Trigger settings in Ci/Cd? Like in Dev i want it every week while on production i want it every day?
Yes, you can implement CI/CD for ADF and update any element as you wish docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/data-factory/continuous-integration-deployment?WT.mc_id=AZ-MVP-5003556 , because ADF triggers are just objects that can be updated via ARM template docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/templates/microsoft.datafactory/2018-06-01/factories/triggers?WT.mc_id=AZ-MVP-5003556
@@AdamMarczakYT but every time I run the publish the arm template change.
it's possible to do the same with github : copy files from github to azure blob storage?
can the event grid be used for files in cosmos, meaning when the stream file is created in cosmos trigger the pipeline in ADF
But cosmos db isn't file hosting service. It's a NoSQL database, it does have attachment features but it's not it's main feature and should not be used as such. Can you elaborate on your question?
hi Adam, Awesome video on Azure Data Factory Triggers.
I have a use-case where I am copying data from Google BigQuery using ADF. Can we use event based trigger to trigger the ADF copy-data pipeline when a table is created in BigQuery? Is that possible? - Sam
Hey! thanks Sam!
I'm not expert on big query but I know ADF doesn't support events outside of blob storage at this time. What you could do on the other hand is maybe create a small logic app and query big querys REST Api for this cloud.google.com/bigquery/docs/reference/rest/ and whenever you see new dataset trigger ADF pipeline with name of the table.
Also if you just want to always copy all tables from big query via ADF you can use Lookup action to list tables from bigquery and just loop over them and copy all. I don't know big query through so I'm just throwing out ideas.
@@AdamMarczakYT Thanks Adam for your prompt response. Let me explore the Logic app; I tried the Lookup action, but in my case a table gets created every day. Basically I need to query the google analytics data from ga_sessions_ table into a temp table on BigQuery side and then copy that temp table to Azure.
I did exactly this in the past by writing small function app in Azure which consumed data daily from this reporting api developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/reporting/core/v4/
Can we automatically trigger event in storage qeue when storage account updated????
Yep. Use event grid to do this.
Go to blob > events on the left menu > new subscription > endpoint type storage queue.
docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/event-grid/blob-event-quickstart-portal?WT.mc_id=AZ-MVP-5003556 like here just different endpoint type (webhook > queue).
I have daily email recieved with 15K records in csv from a contractor trigger method shoudl i use to pick up that file from the email. First option logic app but not sure how to develop one. What trigger method would you advice. I am thinking of power automate but not sure which method will work with which trigger method. Thanks
Yes, you can use Power Automate to get the email attachments, as the email arrives, and save them to your OneDrive or SharePoint Library. No need for Logic Apps or ADF.
Will ADF supports file created event triggers in data lake store ?
Gen 2 is supported, Gen 1 is not. This is related to event grid which doesn't work with gen 1.
Hi, How to do that in power BI datalake
Hi!, Is this possible to trigger pipeline when some message lands in queue?
Yes but not directly from Data Factory. Use logic apps as they are enterprise integration service designed for those kind of scenarios.
@@AdamMarczakYT Thanks! Moving on to the logic apps video then :)
Hi Adam thanks for your videos they are very useful. I have simple copy activity pipeline for which I have set up a event based trigger (when blob is updated the pipeline is executed). It works seamlessly when I upload a file into the blob manaully. But when I use logic app to extract the attachment and upload the file to blob, the copy activity fails
Operation on target Copy data1 failed: ErrorCode=UserErrorInvalidColumnMappingColumnNotFound,'Type=Microsoft.DataTransfer.Common.Shared.HybridDeliveryException,Message=Column 'Employee_ID' specified in column mapping cannot be found in source data.,Source=Microsoft.DataTransfer.ClientLibrary,'
The same csv file returns no error when I upload the file manually but fails when it is uploaded via the logic app
Are you sure it's exactly the same. Error suggests your column mapping is incorrect. Also try removing all mapping and create them again, maybe you missed something. I've seen this happen when I was doing trainings for others. Best course of action was quickly doing everything over, it's too hard to find issues sometimes.
the most interesting rigger the Tumbling Wondows you did NOT explained..why?
I explained tumbling window at 1:35 . I did not show life demo because it is too similar to timer trigger demo. Only difference is concurrency controlling.
Feel free to check the docs for more examples: docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/data-factory/tumbling-window-trigger-dependency
@@AdamMarczakYT ok but Tumbling Windows is different by defintion. It has states. I was keen to see an explanatin of it. I am wondering why you did not explain it because you normally give clear explanation of topics. thanks anyway.
MS Azure is perhaps the worst product I have ever seen. Over engineered, super slow, thousands of things to click, thousands of "X" to click just to get rid of the stupid popups built in to every single action, thousands of re-hovering over something which has a popup description where UNDER THE DESCRPTION POPUP is the 3 elipses ... that you are trying to click but you can't because when you hovered over it the FUCKING POPUP gets in the way. Just terrible. I mean UNBELIEVABLY bad product.
By the way, event trigger doesn't work, throws an error and window pops up with error message but it only stays there a few seconds, and as I try to highlight select the text so I can copy/paste it to search for solution, then, AND ONLY THEN does the typical popup which stays WAY TOO LONG decide to disappear before i can copy paste it into a search. I mean this product is complete and utter fucking shit.
