Thanks, @mcvsubbu, In short, the goal here is to add a new public endpoint to schedule ad-hoc minion tasks. Current minion tasks require all tasks configs to be part of table configs, it makes sense for regularly scheduled jobs, but when I want to quickly test something, it's hard for me to bring in data using minion. Once this feature is in place, we can also implement the feature of SQL `INSERT INTO` with raw files in the query console to simplify the ingestion process. E.g. ``` INSERT INTO [db.]table [(c1, c2, c3)] FROM INFILE file_name [COMPRESSION type] FORMAT format_name; ``` or ``` LOAD LABEL [db.]task ( DATA INFILE("s3a://my-s3-bucket/*/*.parquet") INTO TABLE `table` ) WITH MINION minionTag ( "fs.s3.accessKeyId" = "<my-access-key>", "fs.s3.accessKeySecret" = "<my-secret-key>" ); ``` -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
