Common Scenarios

Practical, task-based guides for common Bauplan workflows - from building multi-stage pipelines to resolving conflicts and choosing between the SDK and CLI.

Multi-stage pipelines

Chain models into a DAG and choose what to materialize.

Schema conflicts

Resolve column-type conflicts when creating tables from S3 files.

Branching workflows

Promote validated changes from a branch to production.

Detached job runs

Submit, poll, and manage long-running or scheduled jobs.

Parameterized runs

Pass parameters and encrypted secrets to pipelines.

Conflict management

Handle merge, naming, and schema-drift conflicts safely.

SQL files

Use standalone .sql files as models, dbt-style.

SDK or CLI?

Choose between the CLI, Python SDK, and web app.
