Pulling a Pipeline from GIT

This feature is for pulling the previously moved versions of a pipeline that are committed by the user. This can help a user significantly to recover the lost pipelines or avoid unwanted modifications made to the pipeline.

• Select the data pipeline version by marking the given checkbox.

• Click the Ok option.

Please Note:

• The pipeline that you pull will be changed to the selected version. Please make sure to manage the versions of the pipeline properly.
