    Hello,

    Is this available for Datalink (Classic) as I do not see that option?

    Thank you,

    I believe you can by unchecking this box. 
    If so you need to log into the DL's instance and perform the check in manually

    In some of our connectors (D/L Classic), I had to uncheck the validation option, as the load was failing. It seems to be due to a mismatch in the columns. I need to double-check.

    In any case, the Validation option is not related to the prevent check-in as requested by @Chennappa Muddammagari. I believe the option is not available in Classic.​​

    In Datalink Classic the option to check-in or not is located on the connector group i.e. you will have to add connectors to a group and run the group instead of running connectors individually.  
    Alternatively you can lock stage on the destination project which will stop any check-in by Datalink.  After running the connectors you can then delete the tables in the DL workspace in TBM Studio and re-enable check-ins.

    Good point, @Rene Norskov. Thankso for pointing it out.
    As a matter of fact, we did that a couple of months ago, with a series of independent data loads, each requiring a separate connector. I just forgot about it 😯😯😯😯😯​

    Thank you @Guillermo Cuadrado and @Dru Robinson, Is it possible to not to checkin for "Cost Transparency Integration" when we push plan data from IT Planning to Cost transparency through out of box "Cost Transparency Integration" process.

    Please advice.

    Thank you,
    Chenna.

    Thank you @Guillermo Cuadrado for quick response.​

    @Chennappa Muddammagari   The ITP - Cost Transparency Integration will always attempt to check-in when published from ITP.  If you don't want to check-in, and keep tables only in the DL workspace, you should lock stage on the destination project.
    Alternatively you can manually export from ITP and import to your own or the DL workspace in order to review files before check-in or before publishing in ITP.
