# AWS::ObservabilityAdmin::TelemetryPipelines TelemetryPipelineConfiguration
<a name="aws-properties-observabilityadmin-telemetrypipelines-telemetrypipelineconfiguration"></a>

Defines the configuration for a pipeline, including how data flows from sources through processors to destinations. The configuration is specified in YAML format and must include a valid pipeline definition with required source and sink components. This pipeline enables end-to-end telemetry data collection, transformation, and delivery while supporting optional processing steps and extensions for enhanced functionality.

The primary pipeline configuration section are:
+ **Source:** Defines where log data originates from (S3 buckets, CloudWatch Logs, third-party APIs). Each pipeline must have exactly one source.
+ **Processors (optional):** Transform, parse, and enrich log data as it flows through the pipeline. Processors are applied sequentially in the order they are defined.
+ **Sink:** Defines the destination where processed log data is sent. Each pipeline must have exactly one sink.
+ **Extensions (optional):** Provide additional functionality such as AWS Secrets Manager integration for credential management.

For more details on each configuration section see [CloudWatch pipelines User Guide](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonCloudWatch/latest/monitoring/cloudwatch-pipelines.html). Additional comprehensive configuration examples can be found in the [CreateTelemetryPipeline API docs](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cloudwatch/latest/observabilityadmin/API_CreateTelemetryPipeline.html#API_CreateTelemetryPipeline_Examples).
