I want to run the code in a single code step without re-deploying my whole workflow about pipedream HOT 7 CLOSED

Not clear on the ask here, is it more about speeding up the deployment or about running the same pipeline from that step with all the state of a previous event?

Yes I apologize on the lack of detail, this was a placeholder based on a user request and needs more discussion.

The specific ask was for a more interactive editing experience. If I'm playing around with a new npm package whose API I'm still learning, for example, I'd like to run a specific step interactively, as I make changes, without having to re-deploy and re-run the whole workflow.

I realize handling state complicates this (do we use the values from the most recent event, the test event?), but that's the general ask.

like the idea also,

From @sauvegardezvous in PipedreamHQ/roadmap#328 (closed that ticket as a duplicate):

I am always waiting to test my code in every steps when I am building a workflow.
I have to manipulate data and all previous steps are triggered and do things normally.
And that creates so many unwanted requests to 3rd parties apps.

Describe the solution you'd like
I suggest to be able to run only one step from all steps, and get the last result available for that step.

Do you have a workaround?
no, and I can trigger off all others steps but I lost the result (output)

+1. Useful for processes that work together with distributed services as calling APIs or processing some data that changes each time is retrieved, its good to have that cache available, I love how the entire set of steps stores the cache for each input/output, that cache just need to be re-used to be the input for a single step, a "run from here" button would be very very appreciated.

Yes, please! This is a must. Can be very cumbersome to pause previous steps just to simply run one step. Also, would like to process data from the previous step.

This is available in the newest version of our workflow builder!

You can now test a single step, all steps above the current step, below the current step, or the entire workflow. All without deploying your workflow. You can run tests on any of the events from your trigger history.

Once you're confident in your changes, you can deploy the final code, and that version will run against live traffic.
