These plugins are available in the\ndefault namespace in your instance, and any new namespaces that you create. You\ncan download additional plugins from [Hub](/data-fusion/docs/how-to/deploy-a-plugin).\n\nPlugins have the following categories in Cloud Data Fusion. They appear on\nthe left-hand panel in the Cloud Data Fusion **Studio** page.\n\nSource\n------\n\nSource plugins connect to databases, files, or real-time streams where your\npipeline reads data. You set up sources for a data pipeline using the web\ninterface, so you don't have to use code to configure low-level connections.\n\nTransform\n---------\n\nTransformation plugins change data after it's loaded from a source. For\nexample, you can use these plugins to clone a record, change the file format to\nJSON, or create a custom transformation using JavaScript.\n\nAnalytics\n---------\n\nAnalytics plugins perform aggregations, such as joining data from different\nsources and running analytics and machine learning operations.\n\nSink\n----\n\nSink plugins write data to resources, such as Cloud Storage,\nBigQuery, Spanner, relational databases, file systems, and\nmainframes. You can query the data that gets written to the sink using the\nCloud Data Fusion web interface or REST API.\n\nConditions and actions\n----------------------\n\nCondition and action plugins schedule actions that take place during a workflow,\nbut don't directly manipulate data in the workflow.\n\nExample use cases:\n\n- Schedule a database command to run at the end of your pipeline by adding the Database action plugin to your pipeline.\n- Trigger an action that moves files within Cloud Storage by adding the File Move plugin to your pipeline.\n\nError handlers and alerts\n-------------------------\n\nWhen stages of the pipeline encounter null values, logical errors, or other\nerrors, error handler plugins catch them. Use these plugins to find errors in\nthe output after a transform or analytics plugin in your pipeline. You can write\nthe errors to a database for analysis.\n\nWhat's next\n-----------\n\n- Learn how to [deploy a plugin from the Cloud Data Fusion Hub](/data-fusion/docs/how-to/deploy-a-plugin)."]]
