[Feature Request]: Parquet File Output Base File Name Field Select #3242

Open harrisward opened 1 year ago

harrisward commented 1 year ago

What would you like to happen?

At the moment the Base File Name option can only be a static string or a variable. Would be good to be able to use a previous field value instead via a drop down

Could you clarify Harris: do you want to write multiple files or just grab the filename from the first row? It feels like it would be confusing to do the latter.

I think you are right and it would be the ability to write multiple files.

mattcasters commented 12 months ago

Start a new file each time we get a new filename in the stream of rows?

I think that makes sense? Leave it up to the user to sort their data :)
