Use writeDisposition instead. If writeDisposition is specified, this parameter is ignored. force=false is equivalent to writeDisposition=WRITE_EMPTY and force=true is equivalent to writeDisposition=WRITE_TRUNCATE.
Determines if existing data in the destination dataset is overwritten, appended to, or not written if the tables contain data. If a writeDisposition is specified, the force parameter is ignored.
