template=TemplateV2.get_template_by('Drop Duplicates')

recipe_Drop_Duplicates= project.addRecipe([car_data, employee_data, temperature_data, only_numeric], name='Drop Duplicates')

transform=Transform()
transform.templateId = template.id
transform.name='Drop Duplicates'
transform.variables = {
'input_dataset':'car',
'output_dataset':'car_drop_duplicates'}
recipe_Drop_Duplicates.add_transform(transform)
recipe_Drop_Duplicates.run()
