The following job options can be applied to all targets. See the links below for .
COMMENT
— editableType: text
(Optional) A description or comment regarding this job.
COMPUTE_CLUSTER
— editableType: identifier
Default: The sole cluster in your environment
(Optional) The compute cluster to run this job.
This option can only be omitted when there is just one cluster in your environment.
Once you have more than one compute cluster, you are required to provide which one to use through this option.
END_AT
— editableValues: { NOW | timestamp }
Default: Never
(Optional) Configures the time to stop inserting data. Data after the specified time is ignored.
RUN_INTERVAL
Value: <integer> { MINUTE[S] | HOUR[S] | DAY[S] }
Default: 1 MINUTE
(Optional) How often the job runs.
The runs take place over a set period of time defined by this interval and they must be divisible by the number of hours in a day.
For example, you can set RUN_INTERVAL
to 2 hours (the job runs 12 times per day), but trying to set RUN_INTERVAL
to 5 hours would fail since 24 hours is not evenly divisible by 5.
RUN_PARALLELISM
— editableType: integer
Default: 1
(Optional) Controls how many jobs run in parallel to process a single minute of data from the source table.
Increasing this can lower the end-to-end latency if you have lots of data per minute.
START_FROM
Values: { NOW | BEGINNING | timestamp }
Default: BEGINNING
(Optional) Configures the time to start inserting data from. Data before the specified time is ignored.
