Storage for data extracts
For the Download data extract delivery method, you designate a connection as the target storage location for data extract files contained in data products. Typically, you use the same file storage location for all data extracts. Consumers can download the data extracts from this location.
For the Deliver as a table in watsonx.data and Access in watsonx.data delivery method, you must designate a connection as the target storage location for data extract files included in data products. Typically, the same storage location is used for all extracts, and consumers can download the files from this location.
To use the Deliver as a table in watsonx.data delivery method:
- Add the IBM Cloud Object Storage bucket as a component in watsonx.data.
- Configure the same bucket as a connection in Data Product Hub.
The connection for the target storage location for data extracts requires read/write credentials.
To find connectors that support data extracts, both source and target, see Delivery methods for connectors.
