After adding steps to your data flow, you have the option to reorder steps instead of deleting and re-adding them in the correct order. For example, you might decide to move a transform to impute missing values before a step to format strings.
Note
You can’t change the order of certain step types, such as defining your data source, changing data types, joining, concatenating, or splitting. Steps that can’t be reordered are grayed out in the Canvas application UI.
To reorder your data flow steps, do the following:
While editing a data flow in Data Wrangler, choose the Data tab. A side panel called Steps lists your data flow steps in order.
Hover over a transform step and choose the More options icon (
) next to that step.From the context menu, choose Reorder.
Drag and drop your data flow steps into your desired order.
When you’ve finished, choose Save.
Your data flow steps and graph should now reflect the changes you’ve made.
