Explanation
Activities are linked together via dependencies. A dependency has a condition of one of the following:
Succeeded, Failed, Skipped, or Completed.
Consider Pipeline1:
If we have a pipeline with two activities where Activity2 has a failure dependency on Activity1, the pipeline will not fail just because Activity1 failed. If Activity1 fails and Activity2 succeeds, the pipeline will succeed.
This scenario is treated as a try-catch block by Data Factory.
Waterfall chart Description automatically generated with medium confidence

The failure dependency means this pipeline reports success.
Note:
If we have a pipeline containing Activity1 and Activity2, and Activity2 has a success dependency on Activity1, it will only execute if Activity1 is successful. In this scenario, if Activity1 fails, the pipeline will fail.
