Before you upload data make sure that your file is less than 100MB and that it has a maximum of 100 columns. We also recommend that you use the four-digit (“yyyy”) format for date and time records that include a year. When data from an ingested file uses the two-digit (“yy”) format, additional date and time pattern rules for the “year” are applied. This can result in an unexpected date value.

- Data Stream Updates Using File Upload
Update the data of an existing data stream created using File Upload. Quickly update your data by re-uploading the revised CSV file with added or removed records. Updating data replaces the data that was previously stored in the associated Data Lake Object (DLO). It also ensures that the data stream is always current with the latest information.
