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:

  • Stop Pipeline Execution: Stops the current pipeline execution if the Snap encounters an error.

  • Discard Error Data and Continue: Ignores the error, discards that record, and continues with the remaining records.

  • Route Error Data to Error View: Routes the error data to an error view without stopping the Snap execution.

String

String

N/A

 

Specify a unique name for the Snap.

 

Label*

 

Default ValueS3 Archive
Example: Project Archive

Bucket*

 

Default Value: None
Example:

String/Expression/SuggestionN/

A 

Specify the S3 bucket name where the S3 object to be archived is located.

Note

Do not add S3:/// before bucket name, because the Snap can fail.

  • Bucket names are unique globally and can be accessed without its region name in most cases. If you cannot access a bucket name without its region name, you can specify the region information in the following syntax

    • <S3_bucket_name>@<region_name>

  • You can also access the S3 bucket in an S3 Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) endpoint by specifying the bucket name in the following syntax:

    • <S3_bucket_name>@<VPC_S3_endpoint>

Note: When you enter an incorrect region name, but if the bucket name is valid, the AWS S3 service may successfully access the bucket without any error.

 

Bucket*

 

Default Value: None
Example:

  • mybucket

  • mybucket@eu-west-1

  • Example of S3 Bucket in S3 region:

    mybucket@s3

    .

    eu-west-1.amazonaws.com

    Example of S3 VPC endpoint:

  • my-bucket@bucket.vpce-028b7814794578709-vu0vvauy.s3.us-west-2.vpce.amazonaws.com

    • abc/xyz/test.xml

    String/Expression/Suggestion

    N/A

    Specify the S3 object key name, which may include one or more forward-slash ('/') characters.

    The forward-slash character is part of the S3 object key name and there is no folder object defined in AWS S3. The maximum length of the suggested list is 1,000.

    Specify the maximum number of threads to be used to archive multiple S3 objects in parallel with Bucket and Object Key properties expression-enabled.

    If the Thread Pool Size property is expression-enabled, it can be evaluated with a Pipeline parameter, but not with an input document. Therefore, the value of this property remains constant throughout the Pipeline execution.

    Dropdown list

    N/A

    Select one of the three modes in which the Snap executes. Available options are:

    • Validate & Execute: Performs limited execution of the Snap, and generates a data preview during Pipeline validation. Subsequently, performs full execution of the Snap (unlimited records) during Pipeline runtime.

    • Execute only: Performs full execution of the Snap during Pipeline execution without generating preview data.

    • Disabled: Disables the Snap and all Snaps that are downstream from it.

    Troubleshooting

    Error

    Reason

    Resolution

    Account validation failed.

    The Pipeline ended before the batch could complete execution due to a connection error.

    Verify that the Refresh token field is configured to handle the inputs properly. If you are not sure when the input data is available, configure this field as zero to keep the connection always open.
