How to get owner details of pipeline in Azure Data Factory?

Question

Is there a way to check who created the pipeline in ADF (considering Git is not configured)?

Answer 1

Hey,

There is no out of the box feature to get those details.

You would have to use logs to determine it.

Whenever you create any new pipeline, a log is created in Activity log

In case historical, you would need log enabled and need to manage the historical data

Hi Madhu G,

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A forum and thanks for posting your query.

In addition to Nandan Hegde's inputs, if you have created a diagnostic setting to send the activity logs to Log Analytics workspace (Azure Monitor Logs), then you can use ADX Kusto query to get the details of the user/caller who created the pipeline. (Please note that for logs stored in Azure Monitor logs, there is a retention period of up to two years and the default retention period in Log Analytics is 90 days)

Here is a sample query which you can use and modify as per your need:

AzureActivity //TableName where you can find the logs
| where OperationNameValue == "Microsoft.DataFactory/factories/pipelines/write" //OperantionNameValue
| where Resource == "pl_parent_ValidateFilesInADLSToInvokeAdfPipeline"  //provide pipeline name 
| project Caller, Resource ,OperationNameValue, OperationName, OperationId, TimeGenerated, Type
| order by TimeGenerated asc 

Here is the output looks like:

Hope this info helps.
