Creating and managing datasets

This page explains how to create, edit, view, and delete datasets. For an overview of datasets, see the Data model documentation.

Creating a dataset

To use the Cloud Healthcare API, you must create at least one dataset.

The following examples show how to create a dataset.

Console

  1. In the Cloud Console, go to the Datasets page.

    Go to the Datasets page

  2. Click Create dataset.
  3. Choose a dataset identifier that's unique in your project and region. If the identifier is not unique, the dataset creation fails.
  4. Choose the region where the dataset permanently resides and then click Create.

The new dataset appears in the list.

gcloud

To create a dataset, run the gcloud healthcare datasets create command:

  • The DATASET_ID must be unique within the region. It can be any Unicode string of 1 to 256 characters consisting of numbers, letters, underscores, dashes, and periods.
  • The region can be us-central1, us-west2, us-east4, europe-west2, europe-west4, europe-west6, northamerica-northeast1, southamerica-east1, asia-east2, asia-northeast1, asia-southeast1, australia-southeast1, or us. To use the default region for the project, omit the --location option.
gcloud healthcare datasets create DATASET_ID \
  --location=LOCATION

The command line displays the operation ID and, after the operation completes, a confirmation that the dataset was created:

Create request issued for: [DATASET_ID]
Waiting for operation [projects/PROJECT_ID/locations/LOCATION/datasets/DATASET_ID/operations/OPERATION_ID] to complete...done.
Created dataset [DATASET_ID].

To view more details about the operation, run the gcloud healthcare operations describe command, providing the OPERATION_ID from the response:

gcloud healthcare operations describe OPERATION_ID \
  --dataset=DATASET_ID

The response includes done: true:

done: true
metadata:
  '@type': type.googleapis.com/google.cloud.healthcare.v1.OperationMetadata
  apiMethodName: google.cloud.healthcare.v1.dataset.DatasetService.CreateDataset
  createTime: 'CREATE_TIME'
  endTime: 'END_TIME'
name: projects/PROJECT_ID/locations/LOCATION/datasets/DATASET_ID/operations/OPERATION_ID
response:
  '@type': type.googleapis.com/google.cloud.healthcare.v1.dataset.Dataset
  name: projects/PROJECT_ID/locations/LOCATION/datasets/DATASET_ID

API

To create a dataset, use the projects.locations.datasets.create method.

curl

To create a dataset, make a POST request and specify the following information:

  • A name for the dataset. The dataset ID must be unique in its region. It can be any Unicode string of 1 to 256 characters consisting of numbers, letters, underscores, dashes, and periods.
  • An access token

The following sample shows a POST request using curl.

curl -X POST \
    --data "" \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer $(gcloud auth application-default print-access-token)" \
    -H "Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8" \
    "https://healthcare.googleapis.com/v1/projects/PROJECT_ID/locations/LOCATION/datasets?datasetId=DATASET_ID"

If the request is successful, the server returns the response in JSON format:

{
  "name": "projects/PROJECT_ID/locations/LOCATION/datasets/DATASET_ID/operations/OPERATION_ID"
}

The response contains an operation name. To track the status of the operation and view more details, use the Operation get method:

curl -X GET \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer $(gcloud auth application-default print-access-token)" \
    "https://healthcare.googleapis.com/v1/projects/PROJECT_ID/locations/LOCATION/datasets/DATASET_ID/operations/OPERATION_ID"

If the request is successful, the server returns a response with the status of the operation in JSON format:

{
  "name": "projects/PROJECT_ID/locations/LOCATION/datasets/DATASET_ID/operations/OPERATION_ID",
  "metadata": {
    "@type": "type.googleapis.com/google.cloud.healthcare.v1.OperationMetadata",
    "apiMethodName": "google.cloud.healthcare.v1.dataset.DatasetService.CreateDataset",
    "createTime": "CREATE_TIME",
    "endTime": "END_TIME",
    "logsUrl": "https://console.cloud.google.com/logs/viewer/CLOUD_LOGGING_URL"
  },
  "done": true,
  "response": {
    "@type": "type.googleapis.com/google.cloud.healthcare.v1.dataset.Dataset",
    "name": "projects/PROJECT_ID/locations/LOCATION/datasets/DATASET_ID"
  }
}

PowerShell

To create a dataset, make a POST request and specify the following information:

  • A name for the dataset. The dataset ID must be unique in its region. It can be any Unicode string of 1 to 256 characters consisting of numbers, letters, underscores, dashes, and periods.
  • An access token

The following sample shows a POST request using Windows PowerShell.

$cred = gcloud auth application-default print-access-token
$headers = @{ Authorization = "Bearer $cred" }

Invoke-WebRequest `
  -Method Post `
  -Headers $headers `
  -ContentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8" `
  -Uri "https://healthcare.googleapis.com/v1/projects/PROJECT_ID/locations/LOCATION/datasets?datasetId=DATASET_ID" | Select-Object -Expand Content

If the request is successful, the server returns the response in JSON format:

{
  "name": "projects/PROJECT_ID/locations/LOCATION/datasets/DATASET_ID/operations/OPERATION_ID"
}

The response contains an operation name. To track the status of the operation and view more details, use the Operation get method:

$cred = gcloud auth application-default print-access-token
$headers = @{ Authorization = "Bearer $cred" }

Invoke-WebRequest `
  -Method Get `
  -Headers $headers `
  -Uri "https://healthcare.googleapis.com/v1/projects/PROJECT_ID/locations/LOCATION/datasets/DATASET_ID/operations/OPERATION_ID" | Select-Object -Expand Content

If the request is successful, the server returns a response with the status of the operation in JSON format:

{
  "name": "projects/PROJECT_ID/locations/LOCATION/datasets/DATASET_ID/operations/OPERATION_ID",
  "metadata": {
    "@type": "type.googleapis.com/google.cloud.healthcare.v1.OperationMetadata",

Editing a dataset

The following examples show how to edit an existing dataset.

Console

Cloud Console does not support editing a healthcare dataset. Instead, use curl, Windows PowerShell, or your preferred language.

gcloud

To edit a dataset, run the gcloud healthcare datasets update command, specifying the new time zone. For example, you can set the time zone to "Canada/Eastern".

gcloud healthcare datasets update DATASET_ID \
  --location=LOCATION \
  --time-zone=TIME_ZONE

If the request is successful, the command prompt displays the operation and dataset details:

Updated dataset [DATASET_ID].
name: projects/PROJECT_ID/locations/LOCATION/datasets/DATASET_ID
timeZone: TIME_ZONE

API

To edit a dataset, use the projects.locations.datasets.patch method.

curl

To edit a dataset, make a PATCH request and specify the following information:

  • The name of the dataset
  • The metadata to update
  • An update mask
  • An access token

The following sample shows how to update the time zone by making a PATCH request using curl.

Replace the TIMEZONE variable with a value, such as UTC. The time zone value must be in uppercase.

curl -X PATCH \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer $(gcloud auth application-default print-access-token)" \
    -H "Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8" \
    --data "{
      'timeZone': 'TIMEZONE'
    }" "https://healthcare.googleapis.com/v1/projects/PROJECT_ID/locations/LOCATION/datasets/DATASET_ID?updateMask=timeZone"

If the request is successful, the server returns the response in JSON format:

{
  "name": "projects/PROJECT_ID/locations/LOCATION/datasets/DATASET_ID"
  "timeZone": "TIMEZONE"
}

PowerShell

To edit a dataset, make a PATCH request and specify the following information:

  • The name of the dataset
  • The metadata to update
  • An update mask
  • An access token

The following sample shows how to update the time zone by making a PATCH request using Windows PowerShell.

Replace the TIMEZONE variable with a value, such as UTC. The time zone value must be in uppercase.

$cred = gcloud auth application-default print-access-token
$headers = @{ Authorization = "Bearer $cred" }

The following examples show how to list the datasets in your project.

Console

To list the datasets in your project, in the Cloud Console, go to the Healthcare Datasets page.

Go to the Datasets page

gcloud

To list the datasets in your project, run the gcloud healthcare datasets list command:

gcloud healthcare datasets list

If the request is successful, the command prompt lists the datasets:

ID           LOCATION     TIMEZONE
DATASET_ID   LOCATION       TIME_ZONE

API

To list the datasets in your project, use the projects.locations.datasets.list method.

curl

To list the datasets in your project, make a GET request and specify the following information:

  • The name of your project
  • An access token

The following sample shows a GET request using curl.

curl -X GET \
     -H "Authorization: Bearer $(gcloud auth application-default print-access-token)" \
     "https://healthcare.googleapis.com/v1/projects/PROJECT_ID/locations/LOCATION/datasets"

If the request is successful, the server returns the response in JSON format:

{
  "datasets": [
    {
      "name": "projects/PROJECT_ID/locations/LOCATION/datasets/DATASET_ID",
      "timeZone": "UTC"
    },
    {
      ...
      ...
    }
  ]
}

PowerShell

To list the datasets in your project, make a GET request and specify the following information:

  • The name of your project
  • An access token

The following sample shows a GET request using Windows PowerShell.

$cred = gcloud auth application-default print-access-token
$headers = @{ Authorization = "Bearer $cred" }

Invoke-WebRequest `
  -Method Get `
  -Headers $headers `
  -Uri "https://healthcare.googleapis.com/v1/projects/PROJECT_ID/locations/LOCATION/datasets" | Select-Object -Expand Content

If the request is successful, the server returns the response in JSON format:
