    <title>topic Add option to skip or deactivate a task in Data Engineering</title>

    <description>&lt;P&gt;It would be beneficial to have an option like a toggle to activate or deactivate a Task in the Job graph interface. This mainly helps to skip execution of a task and reactivate it as required.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Currently there is no option to say I want this task to be part of the job execution but I dont want it to run right now and planning to activate it in the flow bit later when all testing looks good.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Example:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Job 12345(Task-1, Task-2, Task-3)&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;For now, I want Task-1 and Task-3 active and Task-2 to be inactive but still want it to be part of the job.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Maybe just load the task with an empty notebook, and once decided just load the right notebook. not ideal but should do the job I guess&lt;/P&gt;</description>
