About this blueprint

Getting Started Software Engineering API

This flow is a simple example of a file processing use case. It downloads a zip file, unzips it, reads a CSV file, and writes the data to a Parquet file, ensuring that the data follows a specific schema.

The flow has four tasks:

  1. The first task downloads a zip file.
  2. The second task unzips the file.
  3. The third task reads the CSV file.
  4. The fourth task writes the data to a Parquet file.
