Public API v2 → Append to External Table Endpoint

About the PUT /extraction/table endpoint

The PUT /extraction/table endpoint extracts data from a business view and adds the Parquet files to the path associated with an existing external table.

Before using this endpoint, you must set the required configurations, such as enabling and configuring Advanced SQLi and setting the CMC configurations, and have an external table already created in the Spark Metastore. For more information, refer to References → Data Extraction via Advanced SQLi and Public API and Public API v2 → Extract to External Table.

Only the Super admin user (and users with the SuperRole when the Super User Mode is enabled) can use this endpoint.
