Dataset Name

Yes

Required. Name of the PartitionedFileSet to which records are written. If it doesn't exist, it will be created.

Snapshot Target Path

Yes

Optional. Base path for the PartitionedFileSet. Defaults to the name of the dataset.

FileSet Properties

Yes

Optional. Advanced feature to specify any additional properties that should be used with the sink, specified as a JSON object of string to string. These properties are set on the dataset if one is created. The properties are also passed to the dataset at runtime as arguments.

Clean Partitions Older Than

Yes

Optional. Configures the sink to delete partitions older than a specified date-time after a successful run. If set, when a run successfully finishes, the sink will subtract this amount of time from the runtime and delete any delete any partitions for time partitions older than that.

For example, if the pipeline is scheduled to run at midnight of January 1, 2016, and this property is set to 7d, the sink will delete any partitions for time partitions older than midnight Dec 25, 2015.
