Capabilities #

Settings #

These and other supported settings are documented below. To quickly find the setting you're looking for, use the Table of Contents at the top of the page.

Destination Path (destination_path) #

  • Default: output

Sets the destination path the JSONL files are written to, relative to the project root.

The directory needs to exist already, it will not be created automatically.

To write JSONL files to the project root, set an empty string ("").

Include Timestamp in File Names (do_timestamp_file) #

  • Default: false

Specifies if the files should get timestamped.

By default, the resulting file will not have a timestamp in the file name (i.e. exchange_rate.jsonl).

If this option gets set to true, the resulting file will have a timestamp associated with it (i.e. exchange_rate-{timestamp}.jsonl).
