Parameters:
  • environmentId (string) –

    [REQUIRED]

    A unique identifier for the kdb environment, where you want to create the dataview.

  • databaseName (string) –

    [REQUIRED]

    The name of the database where you want to create a dataview.

  • dataviewName (string) –

    [REQUIRED]

    A unique identifier for the dataview.

  • azMode (string) –

    [REQUIRED]

    The number of availability zones you want to assign per cluster. This can be one of the following

    • SINGLE – Assigns one availability zone per cluster.

    • MULTI – Assigns all the availability zones per cluster.

  • availabilityZoneId (string) – The identifier of the availability zones.

  • changesetId (string) – A unique identifier of the changeset that you want to use to ingest data.

  • segmentConfigurations (list) –

    The configuration that contains the database path of the data that you want to place on each selected volume. Each segment must have a unique database path for each volume. If you do not explicitly specify any database path for a volume, they are accessible from the cluster through the default S3/object store segment.

    • (dict) –

      The configuration that contains the database path of the data that you want to place on each selected volume. Each segment must have a unique database path for each volume. If you do not explicitly specify any database path for a volume, they are accessible from the cluster through the default S3/object store segment.

      • dbPaths (list) – [REQUIRED]

        The database path of the data that you want to place on each selected volume for the segment. Each segment must have a unique database path for each volume.

        • (string) –

      • volumeName (string) – [REQUIRED]

        The name of the volume where you want to add data.

  • autoUpdate (boolean) – The option to specify whether you want to apply all the future additions and corrections automatically to the dataview, when you ingest new changesets. The default value is false.

  • description (string) – A description of the dataview.

  • tags (dict) –

    A list of key-value pairs to label the dataview. You can add up to 50 tags to a dataview.

    • (string) –

      • (string) –

  • clientToken (string) –

    [REQUIRED]

    A token that ensures idempotency. This token expires in 10 minutes.

    This field is autopopulated if not provided.
