Obtain refresh mode from within Delta Live Table pipeline run

[NemesisMF]

Is it possible to obtain somehow if a DLT pipeline run is running in Full Refresh or incremental mode from within a notebook running in the pipeline?I looked into the pipeline configuration variables but could not find anything.

It would be benefitial to have this information from within the code and do something different in case of a full refresh.

My workaround is so far to have two pipeline jobs and set a config variable if it is running in full refresh, but when executing the pipeline manually this gets dangerous since I have to remind myself to the the value to the correct refresh type.

You can use the following code:

pipeline_run_config = get_current_pipeline_run_config()

# Create a StartUpdate object from the pipeline run configuration
start_update = StartUpdate.from_dict(pipeline_run_config)

# Check if the pipeline run is a full refresh
if start_update.full_refresh:
    print("The pipeline is running in Full Refresh mode.")
else:
    print("The pipeline is running in Incremental mode.")
