Exporting Data (Discarded)

Function

This API is used to export data from a DLI table to a file.

  • This API is asynchronous.

  • Currently, data can be exported only from a DLI table to OBS, and the OBS path must be specified to the folder level. The OBS path cannot contain commas (,). The OBS bucket name cannot end with the regular expression format .[0-9]+(.*). Specifically, if the bucket name contains dots (.), the last dot (.) cannot be followed by a digit, for example, **.12abc and **.12.

  • Data can be exported across accounts. That is, after account B authorizes account A, account A can export data to the OBS path of account B if account A has the permission to read the metadata and permission information about the OBS bucket of account B and read and write the path.

Note

This API has been discarded and is not recommended.
