I think the document here

Question

I think the document here <https docs dagster io concepts solids pipelines pipelines pipeline dsl> is wrong How can we pass same solid to itself as input while the actual add one needs a input Can someone please explain Even if I run it using dagit it shows error for A

max · Answer

the root inputs to the pipeline would presumably be provided through config

Dylan Hunt · Answer

< max> So can we pass config also in yaml or only through the config Also is there other way to construct the pipeline similar to this like json or dynamically generated yaml instead of static file

max · Answer

if you wanted to define config in yaml you could use the `configured` API

max · Answer

and yes in theory there is no reason you couldn t write some code to translate JSON or any other source format into a pipeline definition

max · Answer

the document you linked just shows an example of how you might do that

Dylan Hunt · Answer

Thanks much for the quick response < max>

Dylan Hunt · Answer

But configured API will be passed during the execution can we add it somehow during the construct pipeline method

max · Answer

hm i m not sure i follow `configured` lets you set config at definition time not at execution time <https docs dagster io concepts configuration configured configured api>

Dylan Hunt · Answer
