SYNOPSIS

gcloud alpha dataplex zones create (ZONE : --lake=LAKE --location=LOCATION) --resource-location-type=RESOURCE_LOCATION_TYPE --type=TYPE [--async] [--description=DESCRIPTION] [--display-name=DISPLAY_NAME] [--labels=[KEY=VALUE,...]] [--validate-only] [--[no-]discovery-enabled --discovery-exclude-patterns=[EXCLUDE_PATTERNS,...] --discovery-include-patterns=[INCLUDE_PATTERNS,...] --discovery-schedule=DISCOVERY_SCHEDULE --csv-delimiter=CSV_DELIMITER --[no-]csv-disable-type-inference --csv-encoding=CSV_ENCODING --csv-header-rows=CSV_HEADER_ROWS --[no-]json-disable-type-inference --json-encoding=JSON_ENCODING] [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG ...]

DESCRIPTION

(ALPHA) A zone represents a logical group of related assets within a lake. A zone can be used to map to organizational structure or represent stages of data readiness from raw to curated. It provides managing behavior that is shared or inherited by all contained assets.

The Zone ID is used to generate names such as database and dataset names when publishing metadata to Hive Metastore and BigQuery.

EXAMPLES

To create a Dataplex zone with name test-zone within lake test-lake in location us-central1 with type RAW, and resource location type SINGLE_REGION, run:

$ gcloud alpha dataplex zones create test-zone \ --location=us-central --lake=test-lake \ --resource-location-type=SINGLE_REGION --type=RAW

To create a Dataplex zone with name test-zone within lake test-lake in location us-central1 with type RAW,resource location type SINGLE_REGION with discovery-enabled and discovery schedule 0 * * * *, run:

$ gcloud alpha dataplex zones create test-zone \ --location=us-central --lake=test-lake \ --resource-location-type=SINGLE_REGION --type=RAW \ --discovery-enabled --discovery-schedule="0 * * * *"

POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS

Zones resource - Arguments and flags that define the Dataplex zone you want to

create. 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 zone 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.

ZONE

ID of the zones or fully qualified identifier for the zones. To set the zone attribute:

  • provide the argument zone on the command line.

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

--lake=LAKE

The identifier of the Dataplex lake resource. To set the lake attribute:

  • provide the argument zone on the command line with a fully specified name;

  • provide the argument --lake on the command line.

--location=LOCATION

The location of the Dataplex resource. To set the location attribute:

  • provide the argument zone on the command line with a fully specified name;

  • provide the argument --location on the command line;

  • set the property dataplex/location.

REQUIRED FLAGS

Settings for resources attached as assets within a zone.

This must be specified.

--resource-location-type=RESOURCE_LOCATION_TYPE

Location type of the resources attached to a zone. RESOURCE_LOCATION_TYPE must be one of:

MULTI_REGION

Resources that are associated with a multi-region location.

SINGLE_REGION

Resources that are associated with a single region.

--type=TYPE

Type. TYPE must be one of:

CURATED

A zone that contains data that is considered to be ready for broader consumption and analytics workloads. Curated structured data stored in Cloud Storage must conform to certain file formats (Parquet, Avro, and Orc) and organized in a hive-compatible directory layout.

RAW

A zone that contains data that needs further processing before it is considered generally ready for consumption and analytics workloads.

OPTIONAL FLAGS

--async

Return immediately, without waiting for the operation in progress to complete.

--description=DESCRIPTION

Description of the zone.

--display-name=DISPLAY_NAME

Display name of the zone.

--labels=[KEY=VALUE,...]

List of label KEY=VALUE pairs to add.

Keys must start with a lowercase character and contain only hyphens (-), underscores (_), lowercase characters, and numbers. Values must contain only hyphens (-), underscores (_), lowercase characters, and numbers.

--validate-only

Validate the create action, but don't actually perform it.

Settings to manage the metadata discovery and publishing.
--[no-]discovery-enabled

Whether discovery is enabled. Use --discovery-enabled to enable and --no-discovery-enabled to disable.

--discovery-exclude-patterns=[EXCLUDE_PATTERNS,...]

The list of patterns to apply for selecting data to exclude during discovery. For Cloud Storage bucket assets, these are interpreted as glob patterns used to match object names. For BigQuery dataset assets, these are interpreted as patterns to match table names.

--discovery-include-patterns=[INCLUDE_PATTERNS,...]

The list of patterns to apply for selecting data to include during discovery if only a subset of the data should considered. For Cloud Storage bucket assets, these are interpreted as glob patterns used to match object names. For BigQuery dataset assets, these are interpreted as patterns to match table names.

Determines when discovery jobs are triggered.
--discovery-schedule=DISCOVERY_SCHEDULE

Cron schedule https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cron for running discovery jobs periodically. Discovery jobs must be scheduled at least 30 minutes apart.

Describe data formats.
Describe CSV and similar semi-structured data formats.
--csv-delimiter=CSV_DELIMITER

The delimiter being used to separate values. This defaults to ','.

--[no-]csv-disable-type-inference

Whether to disable the inference of data type for CSV data. If true, all columns will be registered as strings. Use --csv-disable-type-inference to enable and --no-csv-disable-type-inference to disable.

--csv-encoding=CSV_ENCODING

The character encoding of the data. The default is UTF-8.

--csv-header-rows=CSV_HEADER_ROWS

The number of rows to interpret as header rows that should be skipped when reading data rows.

Describe JSON data format.
--[no-]json-disable-type-inference

Whether to disable the inference of data type for Json data. If true, all columns will be registered as their primitive types (strings, number or boolean). Use --json-disable-type-inference to enable and --no-json-disable-type-inference to disable.

--json-encoding=JSON_ENCODING

The character encoding of the data. The default is UTF-8.

GCLOUD WIDE FLAGS

These flags are available to all commands: --access-token-file, --account, --billing-project, --configuration, --flags-file, --flatten, --format, --help, --impersonate-service-account, --log-http, --project, --quiet, --trace-token, --user-output-enabled, --verbosity.

Run $ gcloud help for details.

NOTES

This command is currently in alpha and might change without notice. If this command fails with API permission errors despite specifying the correct project, you might be trying to access an API with an invitation-only early access allowlist. This variant is also available:
