<h4>AutoML Tables</h4><div class="ui-datasection-main"><section
class="selected">

See Preparing your training data <https://cloud.google.com/automl-tables/docs/predict-batch>__ for more information.

You can use either gcs_source or bigquery_source][BatchPredictInputConfig.bigquery_source].

For gcs_source:

CSV file(s), each by itself 10GB or smaller and total size must be 100GB or smaller, where first file must have a header containing column names. If the first row of a subsequent file is the same as the header, then it is also treated as a header. All other rows contain values for the corresponding columns.

The column names must contain the model's

[input_feature_column_specs'][google.cloud.automl.v1.TablesModelMetadata.input_feature_column_specs] display_name-s (order doesn't matter). The columns corresponding to the model's input feature column specs must contain values compatible with the column spec's data types. Prediction on all the rows, i.e. the CSV lines, will be attempted.

Sample rows from a CSV file:

.. raw:: html

<pre>
"First Name","Last Name","Dob","Addresses"

"John","Doe","1968-01-22","[{"status":"current","address":"123_First_Avenue","city":"Seattle","state":"WA","zip":"11111","numberOfYears":"1"},{"status":"previous","address":"456_Main_Street","city":"Portland","state":"OR","zip":"22222","numberOfYears":"5"}]"

</pre>

For bigquery_source:

The URI of a BigQuery table. The user data size of the BigQuery table must be 100GB or smaller.

The column names must contain the model's

</div>

Input field definitions:

GCS_FILE_PATH : The path to a file on Google Cloud Storage. For example, "gs://folder/video.avi".

TIME_SEGMENT_START : (TIME_OFFSET) Expresses a beginning, inclusive, of a time segment within an example that has a time dimension (e.g. video).

TIME_SEGMENT_END : (TIME_OFFSET) Expresses an end, exclusive, of a time segment within n example that has a time dimension (e.g. video).

TIME_OFFSET : A number of seconds as measured from the start of an example (e.g. video). Fractions are allowed, up to a microsecond precision. "inf" is allowed, and it means the end of the example.

Errors:

If any of the provided CSV files can't be parsed or if more than certain percent of CSV rows cannot be processed then the operation fails and prediction does not happen. Regardless of overall success or failure the per-row failures, up to a certain count cap, will be listed in Operation.metadata.partial_failures.

BatchPredictOperationMetadata

Details of BatchPredict operation.

BatchPredictOutputConfig

Output configuration for BatchPredict Action.

As destination the

gcs_destination must be set unless specified otherwise for a domain. If gcs_destination is set then in the given directory a new directory is created. Its name will be "prediction--", where timestamp is in YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss.sssZ ISO-8601 format. The contents of it depends on the ML problem the predictions are made for. - For Image Classification: In the created directory files image_classification_1.jsonl, image_classification_2.jsonl,...,\ image_classification_N.jsonl will be created, where N may be 1, and depends on the total number of the successfully predicted images and annotations. A single image will be listed only once with all its annotations, and its annotations will never be split across files. Each .JSONL file will contain, per line, a JSON representation of a proto that wraps image's "ID" : "<id_value>" followed by a list of zero or more AnnotationPayload protos (called annotations), which have classification detail populated. If prediction for any image failed (partially or completely), then an additional errors_1.jsonl, errors_2.jsonl,..., errors_N.jsonl files will be created (N depends on total number of failed predictions). These files will have a JSON representation of a proto that wraps the same "ID" : "<id_value>" but here followed by exactly one [google.rpc.Status](https: //github.com/googleapis/googleapis/blob/master/google/rpc/status.proto) containing only code and message\ fields. - For Image Object Detection: In the created directory files image_object_detection_1.jsonl, image_object_detection_2.jsonl,...,\ image_object_detection_N.jsonl will be created, where N may be 1, and depends on the total number of the successfully predicted images and annotations. Each .JSONL file will contain, per line, a JSON representation of a proto that wraps image's "ID" : "<id_value>" followed by a list of zero or more AnnotationPayload protos (called annotations), which have image_object_detection detail populated. A single image will be listed only once with all its annotations, and its annotations will never be split across files. If prediction for any image failed (partially or completely), then additional errors_1.jsonl, errors_2.jsonl,..., errors_N.jsonl files will be created (N depends on total number of failed predictions). These files will have a JSON representation of a proto that wraps the same "ID" : "<id_value>" but here followed by exactly one [google.rpc.Status](https: //github.com/googleapis/googleapis/blob/master/google/rpc/status.proto) containing only code and message\ fields. - For Video Classification: In the created directory a video_classification.csv file, and a .JSON file per each video classification requested in the input (i.e. each line in given CSV(s)), will be created. :: The format of video_classification.csv is: GCS_FILE_PATH,TIME_SEGMENT_START,TIME_SEGMENT_END,JSON_FILE_NAME,STATUS where: GCS_FILE_PATH,TIME_SEGMENT_START,TIME_SEGMENT_END = matches 1 to 1 the prediction input lines (i.e. video_classification.csv has precisely the same number of lines as the prediction input had.) JSON_FILE_NAME = Name of .JSON file in the output directory, which contains prediction responses for the video time segment. STATUS = "OK" if prediction completed successfully, or an error code with message otherwise. If STATUS is not "OK" then the .JSON file for that line may not exist or be empty. :: Each .JSON file, assuming STATUS is "OK", will contain a list of AnnotationPayload protos in JSON format, which are the predictions for the video time segment the file is assigned to in the video_classification.csv. All AnnotationPayload protos will have video_classification field set, and will be sorted by video_classification.type field (note that the returned types are governed by classifaction_types parameter in [PredictService.BatchPredictRequest.params][]). - For Video Object Tracking: In the created directory a video_object_tracking.csv file will be created, and multiple files video_object_trackinng_1.json, video_object_trackinng_2.json,..., video_object_trackinng_N.json, where N is the number of requests in the input (i.e. the number of lines in given CSV(s)). :: The format of video_object_tracking.csv is: GCS_FILE_PATH,TIME_SEGMENT_START,TIME_SEGMENT_END,JSON_FILE_NAME,STATUS where: GCS_FILE_PATH,TIME_SEGMENT_START,TIME_SEGMENT_END = matches 1 to 1 the prediction input lines (i.e. video_object_tracking.csv has precisely the same number of lines as the prediction input had.) JSON_FILE_NAME = Name of .JSON file in the output directory, which contains prediction responses for the video time segment. STATUS = "OK" if prediction completed successfully, or an error code with message otherwise. If STATUS is not "OK" then the .JSON file for that line may not exist or be empty. :: Each .JSON file, assuming STATUS is "OK", will contain a list of AnnotationPayload protos in JSON format, which are the predictions for each frame of the video time segment the file is assigned to in video_object_tracking.csv. All AnnotationPayload protos will have video_object_tracking field set. - For Text Classification: In the created directory files text_classification_1.jsonl, text_classification_2.jsonl,...,\ text_classification_N.jsonl will be created, where N may be 1, and depends on the total number of inputs and annotations found. :: Each .JSONL file will contain, per line, a JSON representation of a proto that wraps input text file (or document) in the text snippet (or document) proto and a list of zero or more AnnotationPayload protos (called annotations), which have classification detail populated. A single text file (or document) will be listed only once with all its annotations, and its annotations will never be split across files. If prediction for any input file (or document) failed (partially or completely), then additional errors_1.jsonl, errors_2.jsonl,..., errors_N.jsonl files will be created (N depends on total number of failed predictions). These files will have a JSON representation of a proto that wraps input file followed by exactly one [google.rpc.Status](https: //github.com/googleapis/googleapis/blob/master/google/rpc/status.proto) containing only code and message. - For Text Sentiment: In the created directory files text_sentiment_1.jsonl, text_sentiment_2.jsonl,...,\ text_sentiment_N.jsonl will be created, where N may be 1, and depends on the total number of inputs and annotations found. :: Each .JSONL file will contain, per line, a JSON representation of a proto that wraps input text file (or document) in the text snippet (or document) proto and a list of zero or more AnnotationPayload protos (called annotations), which have text_sentiment detail populated. A single text file (or document) will be listed only once with all its annotations, and its annotations will never be split across files. If prediction for any input file (or document) failed (partially or completely), then additional errors_1.jsonl, errors_2.jsonl,..., errors_N.jsonl files will be created (N depends on total number of failed predictions). These files will have a JSON representation of a proto that wraps input file followed by exactly one [google.rpc.Status](https: //github.com/googleapis/googleapis/blob/master/google/rpc/status.proto) containing only code and message. - For Text Extraction: In the created directory files text_extraction_1.jsonl, text_extraction_2.jsonl,...,\ text_extraction_N.jsonl will be created, where N may be 1, and depends on the total number of inputs and annotations found. The contents of these .JSONL file(s) depend on whether the input used inline text, or documents. If input was inline, then each .JSONL file will contain, per line, a JSON representation of a proto that wraps given in request text snippet's "id" (if specified), followed by input text snippet, and a list of zero or more AnnotationPayload protos (called annotations), which have text_extraction detail populated. A single text snippet will be listed only once with all its annotations, and its annotations will never be split across files. If input used documents, then each .JSONL file will contain, per line, a JSON representation of a proto that wraps given in request document proto, followed by its OCR-ed representation in the form of a text snippet, finally followed by a list of zero or more AnnotationPayload protos (called annotations), which have text_extraction detail populated and refer, via their indices, to the OCR-ed text snippet. A single document (and its text snippet) will be listed only once with all its annotations, and its annotations will never be split across files. If prediction for any text snippet failed (partially or completely), then additional errors_1.jsonl, errors_2.jsonl,..., errors_N.jsonl files will be created (N depends on total number of failed predictions). These files will have a JSON representation of a proto that wraps either the "id" : "<id_value>" (in case of inline) or the document proto (in case of document) but here followed by exactly one [google.rpc.Status](https: //github.com/googleapis/googleapis/blob/master/google/rpc/status.proto) containing only code and message. - For Tables: Output depends on whether gcs_destination or bigquery_destination is set (either is allowed). Google Cloud Storage case: In the created directory files tables_1.csv, tables_2.csv,..., tables_N.csv will be created, where N may be 1, and depends on the total number of the successfully predicted rows. For all CLASSIFICATION prediction_type-s: Each .csv file will contain a header, listing all columns' display_name-s given on input followed by M target column names in the format of "<target_column_specs display_name>__score" where M is the number of distinct target values, i.e. number of distinct values in the target column of the table used to train the model. Subsequent lines will contain the respective values of successfully predicted rows, with the last, i.e. the target, columns having the corresponding prediction scores. For REGRESSION and FORECASTING prediction_type-s: Each .csv file will contain a header, listing all columns' display_name-s given on input followed by the predicted target column with name in the format of "predicted_<target_column_specs display_name>" Subsequent lines will contain the respective values of successfully predicted rows, with the last, i.e. the target, column having the predicted target value. If prediction for any rows failed, then an additional errors_1.csv, errors_2.csv,..., errors_N.csv will be created (N depends on total number of failed rows). These files will have analogous format as tables_*.csv, but always with a single target column having [google.rpc.Status](https: //github.com/googleapis/googleapis/blob/master/google/rpc/status.proto) represented as a JSON string, and containing only code and message. BigQuery case: bigquery_destination pointing to a BigQuery project must be set. In the given project a new dataset will be created with name prediction_<model-display-name>_<timestamp-of-prediction-call> where will be made BigQuery-dataset-name compatible (e.g. most special characters will become underscores), and timestamp will be in YYYY_MM_DDThh_mm_ss_sssZ "based on ISO-8601" format. In the dataset two tables will be created, predictions, and errors. The predictions table's column names will be the input columns' display_name-s followed by the target column with name in the format of "predicted_<target_column_specs display_name>" The input feature columns will contain the respective values of successfully predicted rows, with the target column having an ARRAY of AnnotationPayloads, represented as STRUCT-s, containing TablesAnnotation. The errors table contains rows for which the prediction has failed, it has analogous input columns while the target column name is in the format of "errors_<target_column_specs

display_name>", and as a value has

[google.rpc.Status](https: //github.com/googleapis/googleapis/blob/master/google/rpc/status.proto) represented as a STRUCT, and containing only code and message.

</section><section><h5>Object Tracking</h5>

See Preparing your training data </video-intelligence/automl/object-tracking/docs/prepare>__ for more information.

CSV file(s) with each line in format:

ML_USE,GCS_FILE_PATH

For ML_USE, do not use VALIDATE.

GCS_FILE_PATH is the path to another .csv file that describes training example for a given ML_USE, using the following row format:

GCS_FILE_PATH,LABEL,[INSTANCE_ID],TIMESTAMP,BOUNDING_BOX

GCS_FILE_PATH,,,,,,,,,,

Here GCS_FILE_PATH leads to a video of up to 50GB in size and up to 3h duration. Supported extensions: .MOV, .MPEG4, .MP4, .AVI. Providing INSTANCE_ID\ s can help to obtain a better model. When a specific labeled entity leaves the video frame, and shows up afterwards it is not required, albeit preferable, that the same INSTANCE_ID is given to it.

TIMESTAMP must be within the length of the video, the BOUNDING_BOX is assumed to be drawn on the closest video's frame to the TIMESTAMP. Any mentioned by the TIMESTAMP frame is expected to be exhaustively labeled and no more than 500 BOUNDING_BOX-es per frame are allowed. If a whole video is unknown, then it should be mentioned just once with ",,,,,,,,,," in place of LABEL, [INSTANCE_ID],TIMESTAMP,BOUNDING_BOX.

Sample top level CSV file:

<h4>AutoML Natural Language</h4>

.. raw:: html

<div class="ds-selector-tabs"><section><h5>Entity Extraction</h5>

See Preparing your training data </natural-language/automl/entity-analysis/docs/prepare>__ for more information.

One or more CSV file(s) with each line in the following format:

ML_USE,GCS_FILE_PATH

ML_USE - Identifies the data set that the current row (file) applies to. This value can be one of the following:
- TRAIN - Rows in this file are used to train the model.
- TEST - Rows in this file are used to test the model during training.
- UNASSIGNED - Rows in this file are not categorized. They are Automatically divided into train and test data. 80% for training and 20% for testing..
GCS_FILE_PATH - a Identifies JSON Lines (.JSONL) file stored in Google Cloud Storage that contains in-line text in-line as documents for model training.

After the training data set has been determined from the TRAIN and UNASSIGNED CSV files, the training data is divided into train and validation data sets. 70% for training and 30% for validation.

For example:

TRAIN,gs://folder/file1.jsonl
VALIDATE,gs://folder/file2.jsonl
TEST,gs://folder/file3.jsonl

In-line JSONL files

In-line .JSONL files contain, per line, a JSON document that wraps a [text_snippet][google.cloud.automl.v1.TextSnippet] field followed by one or more [annotations][google.cloud.automl.v1.AnnotationPayload] fields, which have display_name and text_extraction fields to describe the entity from the text snippet. Multiple JSON documents can be separated using line breaks (\n).

The supplied text must be annotated exhaustively. For example, if you include the text "horse", but do not label it as "animal", then "horse" is assumed to not be an "animal".

Any given text snippet content must have 30,000 characters or less, and also be UTF-8 NFC encoded. ASCII is accepted as it is UTF-8 NFC encoded.

For example:

{
  "text_snippet": {
    "content": "dog car cat"
  },
  "annotations": [
     {
       "display_name": "animal",
       "text_extraction": {
         "text_segment": {"start_offset": 0, "end_offset": 2}
      }
     },
     {
      "display_name": "vehicle",
       "text_extraction": {
         "text_segment": {"start_offset": 4, "end_offset": 6}
       }
     },
     {
       "display_name": "animal",
       "text_extraction": {
         "text_segment": {"start_offset": 8, "end_offset": 10}
       }
     }
 ]
}\n
{
   "text_snippet": {
     "content": "This dog is good."
   },
   "annotations": [
      {
        "display_name": "animal",
        "text_extraction": {
          "text_segment": {"start_offset": 5, "end_offset": 7}
        }
      }
   ]
}

JSONL files that reference documents

.JSONL files contain, per line, a JSON document that wraps a input_config that contains the path to a source document. Multiple JSON documents can be separated using line breaks (\n).

Supported document extensions: .PDF, .TIF, .TIFF

For example:

{
  "document": {
    "input_config": {
      "gcs_source": { "input_uris": [ "gs://folder/document1.pdf" ]
      }
    }
  }
}\n
{
  "document": {
    "input_config": {
      "gcs_source": { "input_uris": [ "gs://folder/document2.tif" ]
      }
    }
  }
}

In-line JSONL files with document layout information

Note: You can only annotate documents using the UI. The format described below applies to annotated documents exported using the UI or exportData.

In-line .JSONL files for documents contain, per line, a JSON document that wraps a document field that provides the textual content of the document and the layout information.

For example:

{
  "document": {
          "document_text": {
            "content": "dog car cat"
          }
          "layout": [
            {
              "text_segment": {
                "start_offset": 0,
                "end_offset": 11,
               },
               "page_number": 1,
               "bounding_poly": {

                    {"x": 0.3, "y": 0.1},
                  ],
                },
                "text_segment_type": TOKEN,
            }
          ],
          "document_dimensions": {
            "width": 8.27,
            "height": 11.69,
            "unit": INCH,
          }
          "page_count": 3,
        },
        "annotations": [
          {
            "display_name": "animal",

</section><section><h5>Classification</h5>

See Preparing your training data <https://cloud.google.com/natural-language/automl/docs/prepare>__ for more information.

One or more CSV file(s) with each line in the following format:

ML_USE,(TEXT_SNIPPET | GCS_FILE_PATH),LABEL,LABEL,...

ML_USE - Identifies the data set that the current row (file) applies to. This value can be one of the following:
- TRAIN - Rows in this file are used to train the model.
- TEST - Rows in this file are used to test the model during training.
- UNASSIGNED - Rows in this file are not categorized. They are Automatically divided into train and test data. 80% for training and 20% for testing.
TEXT_SNIPPET and GCS_FILE_PATH are distinguished by a pattern. If the column content is a valid Google Cloud Storage file path, that is, prefixed by "gs://", it is treated as a GCS_FILE_PATH. Otherwise, if the content is enclosed in double quotes (""), it is treated as a TEXT_SNIPPET. For GCS_FILE_PATH, the path must lead to a file with supported extension and UTF-8 encoding, for example, "gs://folder/content.txt" AutoML imports the file content as a text snippet. For TEXT_SNIPPET, AutoML imports the column content excluding quotes. In both cases, size of the content must be 10MB or less in size. For zip files, the size of each file inside the zip must be 10MB or less in size.

For the MULTICLASS classification type, at most one LABEL is allowed.

The ML_USE and LABEL columns are optional. Supported file extensions: .TXT, .PDF, .TIF, .TIFF, .ZIP

A maximum of 100 unique labels are allowed per CSV row.

Sample rows:

TRAIN,"They have bad food and very rude",RudeService,BadFood
gs://folder/content.txt,SlowService
TEST,gs://folder/document.pdf
VALIDATE,gs://folder/text_files.zip,BadFood

</section><section><h5>Sentiment Analysis</h5>

See Preparing your training data <https://cloud.google.com/natural-language/automl/docs/prepare>__ for more information.

CSV file(s) with each line in format:

ML_USE,(TEXT_SNIPPET | GCS_FILE_PATH),SENTIMENT

ML_USE - Identifies the data set that the current row (file) applies to. This value can be one of the following:
- TRAIN - Rows in this file are used to train the model.
- TEST - Rows in this file are used to test the model during training.
- UNASSIGNED - Rows in this file are not categorized. They are Automatically divided into train and test data. 80% for training and 20% for testing.
TEXT_SNIPPET and GCS_FILE_PATH are distinguished by a pattern. If the column content is a valid Google Cloud Storage file path, that is, prefixed by "gs://", it is treated as a GCS_FILE_PATH. Otherwise, if the content is enclosed in double quotes (""), it is treated as a TEXT_SNIPPET. For GCS_FILE_PATH, the path must lead to a file with supported extension and UTF-8 encoding, for example, "gs://folder/content.txt" AutoML imports the file content as a text snippet. For TEXT_SNIPPET, AutoML imports the column content excluding quotes. In both cases, size of the content must be 128kB or less in size. For zip files, the size of each file inside the zip must be 128kB or less in size.

The ML_USE and SENTIMENT columns are optional. Supported file extensions: .TXT, .PDF, .TIF, .TIFF, .ZIP
SENTIMENT - An integer between 0 and Dataset.text_sentiment_dataset_metadata.sentiment_max (inclusive). Describes the ordinal of the sentiment - higher value means a more positive sentiment. All the values are completely relative, i.e. neither 0 needs to mean a negative or neutral sentiment nor sentiment_max needs to mean a positive one
- it is just required that 0 is the least positive sentiment in the data, and sentiment_max is the most positive one. The SENTIMENT shouldn't be confused with "score" or "magnitude" from the previous Natural Language Sentiment Analysis API. All SENTIMENT values between 0 and sentiment_max must be represented in the imported data. On prediction the same 0 to sentiment_max range will be used. The difference between neighboring sentiment values needs not to be uniform, e.g. 1 and 2 may be similar whereas the difference between 2 and 3 may be large.

Sample rows:

TRAIN,"@freewrytin this is way too good for your product",2
gs://folder/content.txt,3
TEST,gs://folder/document.pdf
VALIDATE,gs://folder/text_files.zip,2

<h4>AutoML Tables</h4><div class="ui-datasection-main"><section
class="selected">

See Preparing your training data <https://cloud.google.com/automl-tables/docs/prepare>__ for more information.

You can use either gcs_source or bigquery_source. All input is concatenated into a single

primary_table_spec_id

For gcs_source:

CSV file(s), where the first row of the first file is the header, containing unique column names. If the first row of a subsequent file is the same as the header, then it is also treated as a header. All other rows contain values for the corresponding columns.

Each .CSV file by itself must be 10GB or smaller, and their total size must be 100GB or smaller.

First three sample rows of a CSV file:

</div>

Input field definitions:

ML_USE : ("TRAIN" | "VALIDATE" | "TEST" | "UNASSIGNED") Describes how the given example (file) should be used for model training. "UNASSIGNED" can be used when user has no preference.

GCS_FILE_PATH : The path to a file on Google Cloud Storage. For example, "gs://folder/image1.png".

LABEL : A display name of an object on an image, video etc., e.g. "dog". Must be up to 32 characters long and can consist only of ASCII Latin letters A-Z and a-z, underscores(_), and ASCII digits 0-9. For each label an AnnotationSpec is created which display_name becomes the label; AnnotationSpecs are given back in predictions.

INSTANCE_ID : A positive integer that identifies a specific instance of a labeled entity on an example. Used e.g. to track two cars on a video while being able to tell apart which one is which.

BOUNDING_BOX : (VERTEX,VERTEX,VERTEX,VERTEX | VERTEX,,,VERTEX,,) A rectangle parallel to the frame of the example (image, video). If 4 vertices are given they are connected by edges in the order provided, if 2 are given they are recognized as diagonally opposite vertices of the rectangle.

VERTEX : (COORDINATE,COORDINATE) First coordinate is horizontal (x), the second is vertical (y).

COORDINATE : A float in 0 to 1 range, relative to total length of image or video in given dimension. For fractions the leading non-decimal 0 can be omitted (i.e. 0.3 = .3). Point 0,0 is in top left.

TIME_SEGMENT_START : (TIME_OFFSET) Expresses a beginning, inclusive, of a time segment within an example that has a time dimension (e.g. video).

TIME_SEGMENT_END : (TIME_OFFSET) Expresses an end, exclusive, of a time segment within n example that has a time dimension (e.g. video).

TIME_OFFSET : A number of seconds as measured from the start of an example (e.g. video). Fractions are allowed, up to a microsecond precision. "inf" is allowed, and it means the end of the example.

TEXT_SNIPPET : The content of a text snippet, UTF-8 encoded, enclosed within double quotes ("").

DOCUMENT : A field that provides the textual content with document and the layout information.

Errors:

If any of the provided CSV files can't be parsed or if more than certain percent of CSV rows cannot be processed then the operation fails and nothing is imported. Regardless of overall success or failure the per-row failures, up to a certain count cap, is listed in Operation.metadata.partial_failures.

OutputConfig

For Translation: CSV file translation.csv, with each line in format: ML_USE,GCS_FILE_PATH GCS_FILE_PATH leads to a .TSV file which describes examples that have given ML_USE, using the following row format per line: TEXT_SNIPPET (in source language) \t TEXT_SNIPPET (in target language)
- For Tables: Output depends on whether the dataset was imported from Google Cloud Storage or BigQuery. Google Cloud Storage case:

gcs_destination must be set. Exported are CSV file(s) tables_1.csv, tables_2.csv,...,\ tables_N.csv with each having as header line the table's column names, and all other lines contain values for the header columns. BigQuery case:

bigquery_destination pointing to a BigQuery project must be set. In the given project a new dataset will be created with name

export_data_<automl-dataset-display-name>_<timestamp-of-export-call> where will be made BigQuery-dataset-name compatible (e.g. most special characters will become underscores), and timestamp will be in YYYY_MM_DDThh_mm_ss_sssZ "based on ISO-8601" format. In that dataset a new table called primary_table will be created, and filled with precisely the same data as this obtained on import.
