NAME
gcloud dataplex entries create - create a Dataplex Entry resource
SYNOPSIS
gcloud dataplex entries create (ENTRY : --entry-group=ENTRY_GROUP --location=LOCATION) (--entry-type=ENTRY_TYPE : --entry-type-location=ENTRY_TYPE_LOCATION --entry-type-project=ENTRY_TYPE_PROJECT) [--aspects=YAML_OR_JSON_FILE] [--fully-qualified-name=FULLY_QUALIFIED_NAME] [--parent-entry=PARENT_ENTRY] [--entry-source-ancestors=[ANCESTORS,…] --entry-source-create-time=DATE_TIME --entry-source-description=DESCRIPTION --entry-source-display-name=DISPLAY_NAME --entry-source-labels=[KEY=VALUE,…] --entry-source-platform=PLATFORM_NAME --entry-source-resource=RESOURCE --entry-source-system=SYSTEM_NAME --entry-source-update-time=DATE_TIME] [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG]
DESCRIPTION
Create a Dataplex Entry resource.
EXAMPLES
To create a Dataplex entry with name my-dataplex-entry in location us-central1 in entry group my-entry-group and with entry type projects/my-project/locations/us-central1/entryTypes/my-type, run:
gcloud dataplex entries create my-dataplex-entry --location=us-central --entry_group=my-entry-group --entry-type projects/my-project/locations/us-central1/entryTypes/my-type

To create a Dataplex Entry with name my-child-entry and set its parent to an existing entry my-parent-entry, run:

gcloud dataplex entries create my-child-entry --location=us-central --entry_group=my-entry-group --entry-type projects/my-project/locations/us-central1/entryTypes/my-type --parent-entry projects/my-project/locations/us-central1/entryGroups/my-entry-group/entries/my-parent-entry

To create a Dataplex Entry with its description, display name, ancestors, labels and timestamps populated in its EntrySource, run:

gcloud dataplex entries create my-entry --location=us-central --entry_group=my-entry-group --entry-type projects/my-project/locations/us-central1/entryTypes/my-type --entry-source-description 'This is a description of the Entry.' --entry-source-display-name 'display name' --entry-source-ancestors '{"type":"projects/my-project/locations/us-central1/entryTypes/some-type",
 "name":"projects/my-project/locations/us-central1/entryGroups/my-en\
try-group/entries/ancestor-entry"},
 {"type":"projects/my-project/locations/us-central1/entryTypes/anoth\
er-type",
 "name":"projects/my-project/locations/us-central1/entryGroups/my-en\
try-group/entries/another-ancestor-entry"}' \
    --entry-source-labels key1=value1,key2=value2 \
    --entry-source-create-time 2024-01-01T09:39:25.160173Z \
    --entry-source-update-time 2024-01-01T09:39:25.160173Z

To create a Dataplex Entry reading its aspects from a YAML file, run:

gcloud dataplex entries create my-entry --location=us-central --entry_group=my-entry-group --entry-type projects/my-project/locations/us-central1/entryTypes/my-type --aspects aspects.yaml

The file containing the aspects has the following format:

my-project.us-central1.my-aspect-type:
  aspectType: my-project.us-central1.my-aspect-type
  createTime: "2024-01-01T09:39:25.160173Z"
  updateTime: "2024-01-01T09:39:25.160173Z"
  data:
    {}
POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
Entry resource - Arguments and flags that define the Dataplex Entry you want to reference. The arguments in this group can be used to specify the attributes of this resource. (NOTE) Some attributes are not given arguments in this group but can be set in other ways.

To set the project attribute:

  • provide the argument entry on the command line with a fully specified name;
  • provide the argument --project on the command line;
  • set the property core/project.

This must be specified.

ENTRY
ID of the entry or fully qualified identifier for the entry.

To set the entry attribute:

  • provide the argument entry on the command line.

This positional argument must be specified if any of the other arguments in this group are specified.

--entry-group=ENTRY_GROUP
Entry group containing Dataplex Entries. To set the entry-group attribute:
  • provide the argument entry on the command line with a fully specified name;
  • provide the argument --entry-group on the command line.
--location=LOCATION
Location of the Dataplex resource. To set the location attribute:
  • provide the argument entry on the command line with a fully specified name;
  • provide the argument --location on the command line;
  • set the property dataplex/location.
REQUIRED FLAGS
Entry type resource - Arguments and flags that define the Dataplex EntryType you want to reference. The arguments in this group can be used to specify the attributes of this resource.

This must be specified.

--entry-type=ENTRY_TYPE
ID of the entry type or fully qualified identifier for the entry type.

To set the entry_type attribute:

  • provide the argument --entry-type on the command line.

This flag argument must be specified if any of the other arguments in this group are specified.

--entry-type-location=ENTRY_TYPE_LOCATION
The location of the EntryType resource.

To set the entry-type-location attribute:

  • provide the argument --entry-type on the command line with a fully specified name;
  • provide the argument --entry-type-location on the command line.
--entry-type-project=ENTRY_TYPE_PROJECT
The project of the EntryType resource.

To set the entry-type-project attribute:

  • provide the argument --entry-type on the command line with a fully specified name;
  • provide the argument --entry-type-project on the command line.
OPTIONAL FLAGS
--aspects=YAML_OR_JSON_FILE
Path to a YAML or JSON file containing Aspects to add or update.

When this flag is specified, only Aspects referenced in the file are going to be added or updated. Specifying this flag does not remove any Aspects from the entry. In other words, specifying this flag will not lead to a full replacement of Aspects with a contents of the provided file.

Content of the file contains a map, where keys are in the format ASPECT_TYPE@PATH, or just ASPECT_TYPE, if the Aspect is attached to an entry itself rather than to a specific column defined in the schema.

Values in the map represent Aspect's content, which must conform to a template defined for a given ASPECT_TYPE. Each Aspect will be replaced fully by the provided content. That means data in the Aspect will be replaced and not merged with existing contents of that Aspect in the Entry.

ASPECT_TYPE is expected to be in a format PROJECT_ID.LOCATION.ASPECT_TYPE_ID.

PATH can be either empty (which means a 'root' path, such that Aspect is attached to the entry itself) or point to a specific column defined in the schema. For example: Schema.some_column.

Example YAML format:

  project-id1.us-central1.my-aspect-type1:
    data:
      aspectField1: someValue
      aspectField2: someOtherValue
  project-id2.us-central1.my-aspect-type2@Schema.column1:
    data:
      aspectField3: someValue3

Example JSON format:

  {
    "project-id1.us-central1.my-aspect-type1": {
      "data": {
        "aspectField1": "someValue",
        "aspectField2": "someOtherValue"
      }
    },
    "project-id2.us-central1.my-aspect-type2@Schema.column1": {
      "data": {
        "aspectField3": "someValue3"
      }
    }
  }
--fully-qualified-name=FULLY_QUALIFIED_NAME
A name for the entry that can reference it in an external system. The maximum size of the field is 4000 characters.
Entry resource - Arguments and flags that define the parent Entry you want to reference. This represents a Cloud resource. (NOTE) Some attributes are not given arguments in this group but can be set in other ways.

To set the project attribute:

  • provide the argument --parent-entry on the command line with a fully specified name;
  • provide the argument --project on the command line;
  • set the property core/project.

To set the location attribute:

  • provide the argument --parent-entry on the command line with a fully specified name;
  • provide the argument --location on the command line;
  • set the property dataplex/location.

To set the entry_group attribute:

  • provide the argument --parent-entry on the command line with a fully specified name;
  • provide the argument --entry_group on the command line.
--parent-entry=PARENT_ENTRY
ID of the entry or fully qualified identifier for the entry.

To set the entry attribute:

  • provide the argument --parent-entry on the command line.

--entry-source-ancestors=[ANCESTORS,…]

--entry-source-create-time=DATE_TIME
