Files already existing at the unload destination: s3://snowflake. Use overwrite option to force unlo-CodePudding

I am using SpringBoot and Java to copy data from tables in Snowflake to S3 bucket.

I am using this code:

"COPY INTO s3://snowflake/"  userId  " from \"TEST\".\"PUBLIC\".\"USER_TABLE_TEMP\" storage_integration = s3_int file_format = CSV_TEST;";

And it works. I am puting userId as prefix to file.

What it doesn't work is when I try to copy data for the same user, for a user that .csv file already exists on bucket.

When I try to do it, I am getting this error:

Files already existing at the unload destination: s3://snowflake/1. Use overwrite option to force unloading.

How can I make this work so that the new file overwrites the old one?

CodePudding user response：

You have to use the OVERWRITE-parameter and put it to true within the COPY-command.

So the statement is..

COPY INTO ...
file_format = CSV_TEST
OVERWRITE=TRUE;
