The CData Sync App provides a straightforward way to continuously pipeline your Google Cloud Storage data to any database, data lake, or data warehouse, making it easily available for Analytics, Reporting, AI, and Machine Learning.
The GoogleCloudStorageDestination connector can be used from the CData Sync application to pull data from GoogleCloudStorageDestination and move it to any of the supported destinations.
Create a connection to GoogleCloudStorageDestination by navigating to the Connections page in the Sync App application and selecting the corresponding icon in the Add Connections panel. If the GoogleCloudStorageDestination icon is not available, click the Add More icon to download and install the GoogleCloudStorageDestination connector from the CData site.
Required properties are listed under the Settings tab. The Advanced tab lists connection properties that are not typically required.
Service accounts have silent authentication, without user authentication in the browser. You can also use a service account to delegate enterprise-wide access scopes to the Sync App.
You need to create an OAuth application in this flow. See Creating a Custom OAuth App to create and authorize an app. You can then connect to GoogleCloudStorageDestination data that the service account has permission to access.
After setting the following connection properties, you are ready to connect:
You will also need to specify the following property:

Specifies the mode for inserting data into CSV files.
There are two modes available for inserting data to CSV file:
Limits the number of rows returned rows when no aggregation or group by is used in the query. This helps avoid performance issues at design time.
Limits the number of rows returned rows when no aggregation or group by is used in the query. This helps avoid performance issues at design time.
Specifies the number of concurrent requests.
This property allows you to issue multiple requests simultaneously, thereby improving performance.
These hidden properties are used only in specific use cases.
The properties listed below are available for specific use cases. Normal driver use cases and functionality should not require these properties.
Specify multiple properties in a semicolon-separated list.
| DefaultColumnSize | Sets the default length of string fields when the data source does not provide column length in the metadata. The default value is 2000. |
| ConvertDateTimeToGMT | Determines whether to convert date-time values to GMT, instead of the local time of the machine. |
| RecordToFile=filename | Records the underlying socket data transfer to the specified file. |
This property indicates whether or not to include pseudo columns as columns to the table.
This setting is particularly helpful in Entity Framework, which does not allow you to set a value for a pseudo column unless it is a table column. The value of this connection setting is of the format "Table1=Column1, Table1=Column2, Table2=Column3". You can use the "*" character to include all tables and all columns; for example, "*=*".
The value in seconds until the timeout error is thrown, canceling the operation.
If Timeout = 0, operations do not time out. The operations run until they complete successfully or until they encounter an error condition.
If Timeout expires and the operation is not yet complete, the Sync App throws an exception.
A filepath pointing to the JSON configuration file containing your custom views.
User Defined Views are defined in a JSON-formatted configuration file called UserDefinedViews.json. The Sync App automatically detects the views specified in this file.
You can also have multiple view definitions and control them using the UserDefinedViews connection property. When you use this property, only the specified views are seen by the Sync App.
This User Defined View configuration file is formatted as follows:
For example:
{
"MyView": {
"query": "SELECT * FROM NorthwindOData WHERE MyColumn = 'value'"
},
"MyView2": {
"query": "SELECT * FROM MyTable WHERE Id IN (1,2,3)"
}
}
Use the UserDefinedViews connection property to specify the location of your JSON configuration file. For example:
"UserDefinedViews", "C:\\Users\\yourusername\\Desktop\\tmp\\UserDefinedViews.json"
