#12. Azure Data Factory - Use lookup activity to decide on subsequent activities

We always want some sort of logical checks in between our data flow in pipelines, like to execute a subsequent task or not based. This video takes you through look-up activity in ADF to control the flow of activities. Just spend 5 minutes to learn something useful for realtime projects.
