Create and modify pipelines

You can use Chronosphere Telemetry Pipeline to create, modify, and delete pipelines.

Create a pipeline

Select from the following methods to create a pipeline.

To create a pipeline using the Telemetry Pipeline web interface:

  1. Sign in to Telemetry Pipeline (opens in a new tab).
  2. Go to Core Instances, and then click the name of the Core Instance where you want to deploy your new pipeline.
  3. In the Data Pipelines section, click  Add New.
  4. In the dialog that displays, enter a name for your pipeline in the Pipeline Name field and select an option from the Service Type drop-down menu.
  5. Click Save and Continue.
  6. Optional: Add plugins to confirm that data is flowing through the pipeline to your destination.
  7. Add and configure your source plugins and destination plugins.
  8. Add processing rules to transform the telemetry data as it passes through your pipeline.
  9. Click Save and Deploy to finish creating your pipeline.

Test a destination connection

When you create a pipeline, you can optionally add plugins to confirm that data is flowing through your pipeline to your destination.

Use the Mock Data and Standard output plugins to test connectivity to your destination, and provide insight into what's happening inside your pipeline.

  1. Add the Mock Data source plugin.
  2. In the Mock Data configuration page, expand the Advanced section, set the Samples value to 5, and then click Save.
  3. Add a destination plugin.
  4. Add the Standard output destination plugin, which provides additional data you can use for troubleshooting and diagnostics.
  5. In your pipeline, click Save and Deploy.
  6. Access your destination and verify the mock data is streaming. For example, in Chronosphere Observability Platform, open Logs Explorer and search for the string generated by the Mock Data plugin.
  7. After confirming that data is flowing through your pipeline, remove the Mock Data plugin.

Modify a pipeline

Select from the following methods to modify a pipeline.

To upgrade a pipeline to the latest version, you must use Pipeline CLI.

To modify a pipeline in the Telemetry Pipeline web interface:

  1. Sign in to Telemetry Pipeline (opens in a new tab).
  2. Go to Core Instances, then click the name of the Core Instance where you deployed the pipeline that you'd like to modify.
  3. Under Data Pipelines, click the name of the pipeline that you'd like to modify.
  4. Click  Edit.
  5. Configure the source, destination, and processing rules for your pipeline.
  6. Click Save and Deploy to save your changes.
  7. To adjust your pipeline's scaling, secrets, or deployment strategy, go to the Advanced Settings menu.

Delete a pipeline

Select from the following methods to delete a pipeline.

To delete a pipeline in the Telemetry Pipeline web interface:

  1. Sign in to Telemetry Pipeline (opens in a new tab).
  2. Go to Core Instances, then click the name of the Core Instance where you deployed the pipeline that you'd like to delete.
  3. Under Data Pipelines, find the pipeline that you'd like to delete, and then click Settings > Delete.
  4. In the confirmation dialog that appears, click Delete to permanently delete your pipeline.
