@haosheng lou, consider creating a process entity with inputs and outputs attributes.

e.g.

POST http://localhost:21000/api/atlas/v2/entity

{
  "entity": {
    "typeName": "Process",
    "attributes": {
      "description": null,
      "name": "process1",
      "owner": null,
      "inputs": [
        {
          "guid": "cf3be027-1cbf-4109-a6b4-dabe980043a0",
          "typeName": "DataSet"
        }
      ],
      "outputs": [
        {
          "guid": "8493a6a6-51c8-4106-a3dc-89eccb00833d",
          "typeName": "DataSet"
        }
      ],
      "qualifiedName": "process1@cl1"
    },
    "guid": -1
  },
  "referredEntities": {}
