[Question/Idea] Import HayStack Pipeline to Deepset Studio

[d-kleine]

I would like ask if there is currently an option to import a pipeline you have created code-wise to the deepset cloud, visualize and edit its components, and export this as updated code?

@faymarie Could I please pass this question on to you?

Hi @d-kleine,
thanks for your question. To import your pipeline to deepset Cloud, you would need to use the serialized yaml version of your pipeline. See how to convert your pipeline to yaml here.

To import your yaml, follow these steps:

1. Select "create empty pipeline" in the templates view to create an empty pipeline. This will open the pipeline editor with an empty canvas.
   

2. Enable the yaml view of your pipeline using the switch on the upper right corner of the canvas.

3. Copy-paste your yaml into the Indexing or the Query tab (replace whatever there is)

4. Use the same switch as before to enable the canvas view to edit your pipeline in the Studio editor

5. Finally, you can export your pipeline as yaml or convert it directly to Python

Be aware that if you want to run your pipeline in deepset Cloud, you would need to define inputs/outputs in the yaml/canvas. This is not needed if you aim to run your pipeline locally

Thank you, that's a nice and helpful feature!
