    Thanks @tstack for bringing that option up. pipe.flags does not appear to be documented specifically in the SnapLogic documentation (although it is documented by vague reference when I search the documentation), So I wasn’t aware of it’s availability nor usage.

    This looks a like a good option. I am a little concerned about it’s “undocumented” status, Perhaps that could be wrapped in a function so that we might be insulated from that flag being deprecated in the future.

    Thanks much for the information @tstack
