Pipeline Labels

A pipeline label identifies similar pipelines or pipeline fragments. Use pipeline labels to easily search and filter published pipelines and fragments when viewing them in the Pipelines or Pipeline Fragments views. You cannot use pipeline labels to search and filter draft pipelines and fragments.

Configure pipeline labels using the Labels property on the General tab of the pipeline or fragment.
Note: The label templates is reserved for creating user-defined sample pipelines. See Sample Pipelines.

Pipeline labels are different from labels that you assign to engines within Control Hub. Pipeline labels are optional. You can use pipeline labels to filter published pipelines and fragments viewed in a list.

Engine labels are required. They determine which engines run each pipeline.

If you assign pipeline labels to group pipelines and fragments, you can use the same groupings when you assign labels to engines and jobs in Control Hub. Or, you can use entirely different groupings. For more information about labels, see Labels Overview.

To display labels on the Pipelines view or the Pipeline Fragments view for published pipelines and fragments, click the More icon (), and then click Show Labels.

To filter published pipelines or fragments by label, click the Toggle Filter Column icon (), and then select the labels to filter by.

Deleting Pipeline Labels

You can use Control Hub to delete pipeline labels that are no longer assigned to any pipelines or fragments. Control Hub does not allow you to delete labels that are in use.

For example, let's assume that you publish one pipeline to Control Hub that has an assigned pipeline label named LabelA. No other pipeline is assigned the pipeline label LabelA. You delete all versions of the pipeline assigned LabelA. When you click the Toggle Filter Column icon () to filter pipelines by label, LabelA is listed as an available filter even though it is not assigned to any pipeline. You can delete this label from Control Hub.

Note: To remove labels or assign new labels, configure the Labels property on the General tab of the pipeline or fragment.

To delete pipeline labels that are no longer in use:

  1. In the Navigation panel, click Pipeline Repository > Pipelines.
  2. Click the More icon (), and then click Manage Pipeline Labels.
  3. Select a pipeline label that is not assigned to a pipeline or fragment, and click the Delete icon: .
  4. In the confirmation window, click Delete.
