OptionalcursorThe names of the monotonically increasing columns in the source table that are used to enable
the table to be read and ingested incrementally through structured streaming.
The columns are allowed to have repeated values but have to be non-decreasing.
If the source data is merged into the destination (e.g., using SCD Type 1 or Type 2), these
columns will implicitly define the sequence_by behavior. You can still explicitly set
sequence_by to override this default.
OptionaldeletionSpecifies a SQL WHERE condition that specifies that the source row has been deleted.
This is sometimes referred to as "soft-deletes".
For example: "Operation = 'DELETE'" or "is_deleted = true".
This field is orthogonal to hard_deletion_sync_interval_in_seconds,
one for soft-deletes and the other for hard-deletes.
See also the hard_deletion_sync_min_interval_in_seconds field for
handling of "hard deletes" where the source rows are physically removed from the table.
OptionalhardSpecifies the minimum interval (in seconds) between snapshots on primary keys for detecting and synchronizing hard deletions—i.e., rows that have been physically removed from the source table. This interval acts as a lower bound. If ingestion runs less frequently than this value, hard deletion synchronization will align with the actual ingestion frequency instead of happening more often. If not set, hard deletion synchronization via snapshots is disabled. This field is mutable and can be updated without triggering a full snapshot.
Configurations that are only applicable for query-based ingestion connectors.
