If you have a bash script with multiple steps and you wish to run it as Slurm pipeline, modify your old script and add the notation to mark the start and end of any loops, and the start of any step for which you want to submit as an sbatch job. Then you can use runAsPipeline with your modified bash script, as detailed above.
