gcloud datastore import \- import Cloud Datastore entities from Google Cloud Storage



.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.HP
\f5gcloud datastore import\fR \fIINPUT_URL\fR [\fB\-\-async\fR] [\fB\-\-kinds\fR=[\fIKIND\fR,...]] [\fB\-\-namespaces\fR=[\fINAMESPACE\fR,...]] [\fB\-\-operation\-labels\fR=[\fIOPERATION_LABEL\fR,...]] [\fIGCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG\ ...\fR]



.SH "DESCRIPTION"

Imports entities into Google Cloud Datastore. Existing entities with the same
key are overwritten. The import occurs in the background and its progress can be
monitored and managed via the Operation resource that is created. If an Import
operation is cancelled, it is possible that a subset of the data has already
been imported to Cloud Datastore. This data will not be removed.



.SH "EXAMPLES"

To import all data exported to the output URL
\f5gs://exampleBucket/exampleExport/exampleExport.overall_export_metadata\fR,
run:

.RS 2m
$ gcloud datastore import \e
    gs://exampleBucket/exampleExport/\e
exampleExport.overall_export_metadata
.RE

To import all data exported to the output URL
\f5gs://exampleBucket/exampleExport/exampleExport.overall_export_metadata\fR
without waiting for the operation to complete, run:

.RS 2m
$ gcloud datastore import \e
    gs://exampleBucket/exampleExport/\e
exampleExport.overall_export_metadata \-\-async
.RE

To import only the \f5exampleKind\fR from the data exported to the output URL
\f5gs://exampleBucket/exampleExport/exampleExport.overall_export_metadata\fR,
run:

.RS 2m
$ gcloud datastore import \e
    gs://exampleBucket/exampleExport/\e
exampleExport.overall_export_metadata \-\-kinds='exampleKind'
.RE



.SH "POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS"

.RS 2m
.TP 2m

.TP 2m
\fB\-\-kinds\fR=[\fIKIND\fR,...]

A list specifying what kinds will be included in the operation. When omitted,

.RE

.TP 2m
\fB\-\-namespaces\fR=[\fINAMESPACE\fR,...]

A list specifying what namespaces will be included in the operation. When
omitted, all namespaces are included in the operation, including the default
namespace. To specify that \fBonly\fR the default namespace should be operated
on, use the special symbol '(default)'. For example, to operate on entities from
both the 'customers' and default namespaces:

.RS 2m
$ gcloud datastore import \-\-namespaces='(default)','customers'
.RE

.TP 2m
\fB\-\-operation\-labels\fR=[\fIOPERATION_LABEL\fR,...]
