Snap Views
Type | Format | Number of Views | Examples of Upstream and Downstream Snaps | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|
Input |
|
|
| The data to be loaded into the AlloyDB table. This Snap has one document input view by default. A second view can be added for table metadata as a binary or document stream so that the target absent table can be created in the database with a schema similar to the source table. This schema is usually from the output of a database Select Snap. |
Output | Document |
|
| The Snap outputs one document specifying the status, with the records count that are being inserted into the table. Any error occurring during the process is routed to the error view. |
Error | Error handling is a generic way to handle errors without losing data or failing the Snap execution. You can handle the errors that the Snap might encounter while running the Pipeline by choosing one of the following options from the When errors occur list under the Views tab:
