I have used File Reader in one of my pipelines and when i test it, i am getting error as - "Pipeline has no unlinked input views, but there is input data"

Please find the screenshot of my pipeline:

Kindly help in resolving this issue.

  • Hi @Nidhi,

    Is this pipeline exposed as a Triggered task by any chance ? Most likely you you are sending a POST request but you don’t have an open input view on any of the snaps so the pipeline ends up failing.

      Hi @j.angelevski ,
      I do have a triggered Task linked to this pipeline. But i need to read the data from File Reader before making the Rest api call.
      This error is coming because i have used File Reader snap in the beginning and not Json Parser.
      Is there an option where i can use a File Reader snap along with Json Parser snap in the beginning?

        I am not sure if I understood what you mean by that, if this pipeline is exposed as a Triggered task but you don’t need to POST any data then use a GET request from your application ( Postman for example ), it looks like you are sending a POST request even though is not needed if you don’t expect any data to be posted to begin with.
