subscribing to completion of ADF

Question

How is it possible for the external applications to be notified that my ADF has completed its work?
Is this related to event grid?
Do the external applications have to subscribe to something?

Thanks

Hi @arkiboys ,

Thank you for posting query in Microsoft Q&A Platform.

As per my understanding you are trying to check is Azure Event Grid can be notified automatically what ADF pipeline run completes. Please correct me if I am wrong.

Azure Event grid listens events coming from Event sources and send events to Event handlers to run next process. Click here to know more about Azure Event grid.

At this moment, Azure Data factory is not supported as Event source for Azure Event grid. Click here to see list of supported Event source resources. Hence, We cannot notify Event grid directly when ADF completes its task.

I encourage you to log feedback item for adding ADF as supported Event source for Azure Event Grid. Below is the link for logging Feedbacks. PG team actively checks feedbacks there and consider for future releases.

Between, we can make use of web activity at the end of pipeline run to make API call to invoke further process. That way technically we are invoking external process once ADF completes its work. Thank you.

Hope this helps. Please let us know if any further queries.
