Blueprint Library

Definition​

The Blueprint Library is a location for pre-made Blueprints developed by Platform staff. These Blueprints provide an easy way to avoid monotonous development work associated with integrations.

Library Blueprints are designed to:

  • Accomplish a single common action with a single vendor
  • Require minimal details and credentials to get started
  • Require no coding

Library Blueprints are immediately available to every user in an organization. These Blueprints are constantly updated and monitored by our team. If you run into connection issues or general errors, contact support@shipyardapp.com

Free Blueprints​

A portion of our Blueprints are 100% free, never incurring billable runtime. These Blueprints are marked with "Trigger" in the name and are labeled in the application as "Free".

For example, you may run a job on an external service like dbt Cloud, a process that could take multiple hours to finish. The majority of runtime in these instances is spent waiting for the external service to finish running the job rather than actively processing data on our platform. Instead of charging customers for this "wait time", we choose to make these Blueprints free because their primary function is orchestrating the external service to run a job.

Our definition of Free Blueprints is always evolving. If there's ever a Blueprint you feel meets this condition that isn't classified as free, please reach out to support.
