The Snap has a minimum of one output that provides information on whether the dataset is created or not. You can add an input and error views to view the result.

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.

Detailed Information

Default Value: Deselected

Checkbox

Select this checkbox to allow the Snap to display additional fields which can be included while creating the dataset.

Location

Default Value: None
Example: Europe - Finland (europe-north1)

String/Expression

Displays when Detailed Information is selected.

Specify the geographic location where you want to create the dataset.

Default Table Expiration (in Days)

Default Value: None
Example: 10

String/Expression

Displays when Detailed Information is selected.

Specify the number of days after which any new table created in this dataset should be automatically deleted. You can use this field only if you want to create a dataset to store temporary data that is not to be preserved for longer.
If you want to preserve the tables for longer, then leave this field blank.

Snap Execution

Default Value: 
Example: Validate & Execute

Dropdown list

N/A

Select one of the following three modes in which the Snap executes:

• 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.
