Import/Export
Components that allow you to import or export data to/from CARTO and your connected cloud data warehouse.
Export to Bucket
Description
This components exports a table to a storage bucket. Unless a GCS Bucket Name is provided, the files will be exported to a bucket owned by CARTO. The read access to this bucket is public, but listing is forbidden. This means that a file can only be downloaded by having the link, which name is not guessable.
For Self-Hosted deployments, a bucket owned by the customer needs to be configured. Please refer to this documentation for more information.
Inputs
Source table [Table]File format: Select between CSV and JSON formats for the exported file(s).
Export compressed: Choose between a compressed file (.gz) or uncomprsesed.
(Optional) GCS Bucket name: A custom bucket provided by the user can be used by entering its name. Optionally a folder (or folders) can be added to the bucket name separated by slashes (/). The name of the bucket should follow the GCS specification and the name of the folder(s), in addition to GCS requirements should not contain single quotes (') or backslashes (). The connection (the email which appears on the connections page) should at least have permission for creating and deleting objects. To download the urls in a browser they should grant permissions to the email of an account they can login with. This custom bucket won't work with CARTO Data Warehouse connections unless the bucket is public.
Using this component requires that the connection has BigQuery User permission in the billing project.
