General
Property
Description
Data Sources
The required data sources to base the output on.
Override Window Size
If enabled, this feature can be set to minutes, hours, or days, or Infinite Override Size.
For example, if you wish to create an hourly output that will aggregate data for the last day, then the output interval should be 1 hour, but override window size should be 1 day.
This option is useful when used in combination with upserts.
For example, if you want the latest total count of events per user, set the Override Window to infinite; in this case, every time an event arises for a user, the updated total count for the user is upserted, and the old record is deleted. 
Reporting Tags
Tags that can be sent to external monitoring systems.
Path
The desired path for data to be exported to.
If left empty, a system generated unique path will be used.

Run Compactions
Whether to run compactions on the output.
Excluded Partitions
The partitions to exclude. You can import, export, or edit the list.
S3 Storage
S3 storage location where Upsolver stores the intermediate bulk files before uploading.

Property
Description
Skip Failed Files
If enabled, when a load fails the manifest of that load will be skipped. The skipped manifest will be saved aside for manual re-processing once the copy error has been fixed.
Fail on Write Error

<Database> Connection
Connection string of database connected to this output.
Schema
Schema of this output.
Table Name
Name of output table.
Intermediate Storage Location
Where Upsolver stores the intermediate bulk files before uploading.
Lookup Tables
Property
Description
Window
Window of time to keep in lookup table.
Omit Key Columns
Whether or not to store the key columns in the lookup table. This saves space if enabled, but prevents iteration from returning the key columns.
Real Time
Load data into this lookup table directly from the input stream using a real time cluster if one is deployed.
