Update an existing column on an evaluation pipeline blueprint. Use this to change a column’s configuration, rename it, or move it without recreating the whole pipeline.

​
Behavior Notes

  • Dataset columns are protected and cannot be edited.
  • Only blueprint pipeline columns can be edited; columns on finished batch runs cannot.
  • Column names must remain unique within the pipeline.
  • Editing a column re-queues cells in that column and any columns to its right.
