6. Schedule a Pipeline With Jobs
A Job schedules and coordinates execution of Bragi Configs, lets you set dependencies, and enables automated data workflows. Here's how to create your first Job:

2. Configure Job Details
Fill in the required fields:
Field | Description |
|---|---|
Name | Give your Job a clear, descriptive name (e.g., |

Status | Set Job state: |
Is Scheduled? | If |
CRON | Define the schedule using a CRON expression (see below). |
3. Select Configs for the Job
On the Job Edit page, use the search card in the lower half of the screen to find and add the Configs the Job should run.
Added Configs will appear in the Scheduled Tasks tab.
4. Set Task Dependencies (Optional)
Bragi automatically calculates task dependencies based on your Configs.
To manually control the execution order, use the Task Maintenance screen on the right to adjust dependencies.
5. Set Job Dependencies (Optional)
You can nest Jobs by having a Job depend on another.
Click the arrow next to No dependencies under Job Dependencies, then select which Job you want to depend on, and whether it must succeed (and when) for this Job to run.
For nested Jobs, set Is Scheduled to
falseso they don’t run independently.Jobs can trigger each other in complex workflows.
