  // End of list of possible types for union field source.
}
Fields
errorConfig

object (ImportErrorConfig)

The desired location of errors incurred during the Import.
reconciliationMode

enum (ReconciliationMode)

The mode of reconciliation between existing documents and the documents to be imported. Defaults to ReconciliationMode.INCREMENTAL.
updateMask

string (FieldMask format)

Indicates which fields in the provided imported documents to update. If not set, the default is to update all fields.

This is a comma-separated list of fully qualified names of fields. Example: "user.displayName,photo".
autoGenerateIds

boolean

Whether to automatically generate IDs for the documents if absent.

If set to true, Document.ids are automatically generated based on the hash of the payload, where IDs may not be consistent during multiple imports. In which case ReconciliationMode.FULL is highly recommended to avoid duplicate contents. If unset or set to false, Document.ids have to be specified using idField, otherwise, documents without IDs fail to be imported.

Supported data sources:
idField

string

The field indicates the ID field or column to be used as unique IDs of the documents.

For GcsSource it is the key of the JSON field. For instance, my_id for JSON {"my_id": "some_uuid"}. For others, it may be the column name of the table where the unique ids are stored.

The values of the JSON field or the table column are used as the Document.ids. The JSON field or the table column must be of string type, and the values must be set as valid strings conform to RFC-1034 with 1-63 characters. Otherwise, documents without valid IDs fail to be imported.

Only set this field when autoGenerateIds is unset or set as false. Otherwise, an INVALID_ARGUMENT error is thrown.

If it is unset, a default value Id is used when importing from the allowed data sources.

Supported data sources:
Union field source. Required. The source of the input. source can be only one of the following:
inlineSource

object (InlineSource)

The Inline source for the input content for documents.
gcsSource

object (GcsSource)

Cloud Storage location for the input content.
bigquerySource

object (BigQuerySource)

BigQuery input source.
fhirStoreSource

object (FhirStoreSource)

FhirStore input source.
spannerSource

object (SpannerSource)

Spanner input source.
cloudSqlSource

object (CloudSqlSource)

Cloud SQL input source.
firestoreSource

object (FirestoreSource)

Firestore input source.
alloyDbSource

object (AlloyDbSource)

AlloyDB input source.
bigtableSource

object (BigtableSource)

Cloud Bigtable input source.
