.alter ingestion mapping command

  • Article

Applies to: ✅ Microsoft Fabric ✅ Azure Data Explorer

Alters an existing ingestion mapping that is associated with a specific table/database and a specific format (full mapping replace).

Note

New columns introduced in an ingestion mapping, which aren't present in the source table, will be added to the table during the initial data ingestion for that column. This behavior is only supported for queued ingestion and is contingent on specifying a valid data type for the column.

Permissions

The command to alter database ingestion mapping requires at least Database Ingestor permissions, and the command to alter table ingestion mapping requires at least Table Ingestor permissions.

Syntax

.alter table TableName ingestion MappingKind mapping MappingName ArrayOfMappingObjects

.alter database DatabaseName ingestion MappingKind mapping MappingName ArrayOfMappingObjects

Note

This mapping can be referenced by its name by ingestion commands, instead of specifying the complete mapping as part of the command.

Parameters

Name Type Required Description
TableName string ✔️ The name of the table.
DatabaseName string ✔️ The name of the database.
MappingKind string ✔️ The type of mapping. Valid values are CSV, JSON, avro, parquet, and orc.
MappingName string ✔️ The name of the mapping.
ArrayOfMappingObjects string ✔️ A serialized array with one or more mapping objects defined.

Examples

.alter table MyTable ingestion csv mapping "Mapping1"
```
[
    {"column" : "rownumber", "DataType" : "int", "Properties" : {"Ordinal":"0"} },
    { "column" : "rowguid", "DataType":"string", "Properties":{"Ordinal":"1"} }
]
```

.alter table MyTable ingestion json mapping "Mapping1"
```
[
    { "column" : "rownumber", "DataType" : "int", "Properties":{"Path":"$.rownumber"}},
    { "column" : "rowguid", "DataType":"string", "Properties":{"Path":"$.rowguid"}}
]
```

.alter database MyDatabase ingestion csv mapping "Mapping2"
```
[
    { "column" : "rownumber", "DataType":"int", "Properties":{"Ordinal":"0"}},
    { "column" : "rowguid", "DataType":"string", "Properties":{"Ordinal":"1"} }
]
```

Output

Name Kind Mapping
mapping1 CSV [{"Name":"rownumber","DataType":"int","CsvDataType":null,"Ordinal":0,"ConstValue":null},{"Name":"rowguid","DataType":"string","CsvDataType":null,"Ordinal":1,"ConstValue":null}]
mapping2 CSV [{"Name":"rownumber","DataType":"int","CsvDataType":null,"Ordinal":0,"ConstValue":null},{"Name":"rowguid","DataType":"string","CsvDataType":null,"Ordinal":1,"ConstValue":null}]
