--requests=[dataObject=DATAOBJECT],[dataObjectId=DATAOBJECTID],[parent=PARENT]-
Required, The request message specifying the resources to create. A maximum of
1000 DataObjects can be created in a batch.
dataObject-
The DataObject to create.
data- The data of the dataObject.
name-
Identifier. The fully qualified resource name of the dataObject.
Format:
projects/{project}/locations/{location}/collections/{collection}/dataObjects/{data_object_id}The data_object_id must be 1-63 characters long, and comply with RFC1035. vectors-
The vectors of the dataObject.
KEY-
Sets
KEYvalue. VALUE-
Sets
VALUEvalue.dense-
A dense vector.
values- The values of the vector.
sparse-
A sparse vector.
indices- The corresponding indices for the values.
values- The values of the vector.
values- The values of the vector.
dataObjectId-
The id of the dataObject to create. The id must be 1-63 characters long, and
comply with RFC1035.
Specifically, it must be 1-63 characters long and match the regular expression
[a-z](?:[-a-z0-9]{0,61}[a-z0-9])?. parent-
The resource name of the Collection to create the DataObject in. Format:
projects/{project}/locations/{location}/collections/{collection}.
Shorthand Example:--requests=dataObject={data={…},name=string,vectors={string={dense={values=[float]},sparse={indices=[int],values=[float]},values=[float]}}},dataObjectId=string,parent=string --requests=dataObject={data={…},name=string,vectors={string={dense={values=[float]},sparse={indices=[int],values=[float]},values=[float]}}},dataObjectId=string,parent=string
JSON Example:--requests='[{"dataObject": {"data": {…}, "name": "string", "vectors": {"string": {"dense": {"values": [float]}, "sparse": {"indices": [int], "values": [float]}, "values": [float]}}}, "dataObjectId": "string", "parent": "string"}]'
File Example:--requests=path_to_file.(yaml|json)
-
Collection resource - The resource name of the Collection to create the
DataObjects in. Format:
projects/{project}/locations/{location}/collections/{collection}. The parent field in the CreateDataObjectRequest messages must match this field. 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
projectattribute:-
provide the argument
--collectionon the command line with a fully specified name; -
provide the argument
--projecton the command line; -
set the property
core/project.
This must be specified.
--collection=COLLECTION-
ID of the collection or fully qualified identifier for the collection.
To set the
collectionattribute:-
provide the argument
--collectionon the command line.
This flag argument must be specified if any of the other arguments in this group are specified.
-
provide the argument
--location=LOCATION-
The location id of the collection resource.
To set the
locationattribute:-
provide the argument
--collectionon the command line with a fully specified name; -
provide the argument
--locationon the command line.
-
provide the argument
