Saving the Pipeline to a File while Debugging

When saving the pipeline during a debugging session, keep the following points in mind:

Only XML-codable variables are saved. This includes, Strings, String lists, String tables, documents, and document lists. Variables that are not XML codable are not saved.

Empty variables and null variables are saved.

To save the pipeline to a file while debugging

1. Debug the service as described in Debugging a Flow Service.

2. In the debug session, use the step command or a breakpoint to reach the step for which you want to save the pipeline.

3. Do one of the following:

To save the pipeline to your local file system, click

on the Variables view toolbar. Specify a location and name for the file in the Save As dialog box. Click Save.

To save the pipeline to the IntegrationServer_directory\instances\instance_name\pipeline directory on the machine on which Integration Server reside, click

on the Variables view toolbar. In the Save Pipeline to serverName dialog box, specify the name for the file containing the pipeline contents.

4. Continue debugging the service using the step commands or selecting Run > Resume.
