Trigger Task Option

In the Trigger Task; there is an Option Do not start a new execution if one is already active

In the Documentation this option Do not start a new execution if one is already active allows you prevent a Pipeline from running again if a previous execution of that Pipeline is already running.

Does this option ignore the second request if it is sent at the same time or does it queue it up?

    Actually, it’s passed from parameter only, please see below and I couldn’t understand what do you mean by _p_processing_date and where I have to pass it?

      what do you mean by _p_processing_date

      In SnapLogic terminology:

      • when you reference a field, it is prefaced with the dollar sign ($)
      • when you reference a parameter (which is defined in the pipeline properties), it is prefaced with the underscore (_). Parameters are strings.

      So if the p_processing_date was a parameter, you would use _p_processing_date.
      In this case, you are mapping a date to a field.
