Skill UI

Guides you through building Dagster data pipelines with best-practice advice, ready-to-use configurations, and validation checks for ETL, transformation, orchestration, and streaming workflows whenever the Dagster pipeline creator skill is activated.

This skill provides the core mechanism for integrating Hex into external data pipelines. It enables triggering, monitoring, and managing Hex projects (e.g., via Airflow or Dagster) programmatically. Users can implement parameterized runs, execute multi-step ETL workflows sequentially, and handle status polling and error management, making it ideal for production data orchestration.

This guide details the recommended reference architecture and project structure for integrating with the Hex platform. It covers best practices for designing robust data pipelines, including components like orchestration layers (Airflow, Dagster), API clients, and standardized project layouts. Use this when starting new Hex integrations or reviewing complex data workflows.
