Configure DLT Pipeline to use existing running cluster

How can I configure a DLT pipeline to use an existing running cluster? I don't see where in the settings to set the pipeline to use an existing cluster. Instead it wants to always standup a new cluster.

You can specify configuration for two different cluster types: a default cluster where all processing is performed and a maintenance cluster where daily maintenance tasks are run. Each cluster is identified using the label field.. Delta Live Tables clusters run on a custom version of Databricks Runtime that is continually updated to include the latest features and DLT cluster automatically shuts down when not in use. That said, it is not possible to run a pipeline on an existing cluster. Please refer here for additional details
