    POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
    Entry resource - Entry to create. 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 project attribute:

    • provide the argument entry on the command line with a fully specified name;
    • provide the argument --project on the command line;
    • set the property core/project .

    This must be specified.

    ENTRY
    ID of the entry or fully qualified identifier for the entry.

    To set the entry attribute:

    • provide the argument entry on the command line.

    This positional argument must be specified if any of the other arguments in this group are specified.

    --entry-group = ENTRY_GROUP
    Entry group of the entry. To set the entry-group attribute:
    • provide the argument entry on the command line with a fully specified name;
    • provide the argument --entry-group on the command line.
    --location = LOCATION
    Location of the entry. To set the location attribute:
    • provide the argument entry on the command line with a fully specified name;
    • provide the argument --location on the command line.
    REQUIRED FLAGS
    --gcs-file-patterns =[ GCS_FILE_PATTERNS ,…]
    Patterns to identify a set of files in Google Cloud Storage. A star ( * ) may be used at the end of a pattern to match arbitrary files beginning with that pattern.

    Examples of valid file patterns:

    • gs://bucket_name/ * - Matches all files in 'bucket_name'.
    • gs://bucket_name/file * - Matches files prefixed by 'file' in 'bucket_name'.
    • gs://another_bucket/a.txt - Matches 'gs://another_bucket/a.txt'.
    OPTIONAL FLAGS
    --description = DESCRIPTION
    Textual description of the entry.
    --display-name = DISPLAY_NAME
    Human-readable name for the entry.
    Column schema for the entry. A schema consists of a list of column names along with their types, descriptions, modes, and nested subcolumns. For example: 
    -  
column:  
first_name  
description:  
First  
name  
mode:  
REQUIRED  
type:  
STRING
-  
column:  
last_name  
description:  
Last  
name  
mode:  
REQUIRED  
type:  
STRING
-  
column:  
addresses  
description:  
Addresses  
mode:  
REPEATED  
type:  
RECORD  
subcolumns:  
-  
column:  
city  
description:  
City  
mode:  
NULLABLE  
type:  
STRING  
-  
column:  
state  
description:  
State  
mode:  
NULLABLE  
type:  
STRING
     At most one of these can be specified:
    --schema =[ COLUMN_NAME = COLUMN_TYPE ,…]
    Inline schema for the entry. When specifying a schema via this argument, only column names and types should be provided. Column modes will default to NULLABLE, and column descriptions and nested subcolumns are not supported.
    --schema-from-file = PATH_TO_FILE
    Path to a JSON or YAML file containing the schema for the entry. This can be used to specify schemas with column descriptions, column modes other than NULLABLE, and nested subcolumns. Use a full or relative path to a local file containing the value of schema.
