batch-put-document

Description

Adds one or more documents to an index.

The BatchPutDocument API enables you to ingest inline documents or a set of documents stored in an Amazon S3 bucket. Use this API to ingest your text and unstructured text into an index, add custom attributes to the documents, and to attach an access control list to the documents added to the index.

The documents are indexed asynchronously. You can see the progress of the batch using Amazon Web Services CloudWatch. Any error messages related to processing the batch are sent to your Amazon Web Services CloudWatch log. You can also use the BatchGetDocumentStatus API to monitor the progress of indexing your documents.

For an example of ingesting inline documents using Python and Java SDKs, see Adding files directly to an index .

Options

--index-id (string)

The identifier of the index to add the documents to. You need to create the index first using the CreateIndex API.

--role-arn (string)

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of an IAM role with permission to access your S3 bucket. For more information, see IAM access roles for Amazon Kendra .

--documents (list)

One or more documents to add to the index.

Documents have the following file size limits.

  • 50 MB total size for any file
  • 5 MB extracted text for any file

For more information, see Quotas .

(structure)

A document in an index.

Id -> (string)

A identifier of the document in the index.

Note, each document ID must be unique per index. You cannot create a data source to index your documents with their unique IDs and then use the BatchPutDocument API to index the same documents, or vice versa. You can delete a data source and then use the BatchPutDocument API to index the same documents, or vice versa.

Title -> (string)

The title of the document.

Blob -> (blob)

The contents of the document.

Documents passed to the Blob parameter must be base64 encoded. Your code might not need to encode the document file bytes if you're using an Amazon Web Services SDK to call Amazon Kendra APIs. If you are calling the Amazon Kendra endpoint directly using REST, you must base64 encode the contents before sending.

S3Path -> (structure)

Information required to find a specific file in an Amazon S3 bucket.

Bucket -> (string)

The name of the S3 bucket that contains the file.

Key -> (string)

The name of the file.

Attributes -> (list)

Custom attributes to apply to the document. Use the custom attributes to provide additional information for searching, to provide facets for refining searches, and to provide additional information in the query response.

For example, 'DataSourceId' and 'DataSourceSyncJobId' are custom attributes that provide information on the synchronization of documents running on a data source. Note, 'DataSourceSyncJobId' could be an optional custom attribute as Amazon Kendra will use the ID of a running sync job.

(structure)

A document attribute or metadata field. To create custom document attributes, see Custom attributes .

Key -> (string)

The identifier for the attribute.

Value -> (structure)

The value of the attribute.

StringValue -> (string)

A string, such as "department".

StringListValue -> (list)

A list of strings. The default maximum length or number of strings is 10.

(string)

LongValue -> (long)

A long integer value.

DateValue -> (timestamp)

A date expressed as an ISO 8601 string.

It is important for the time zone to be included in the ISO 8601 date-time format. For example, 2012-03-25T12:30:10+01:00 is the ISO 8601 date-time format for March 25th 2012 at 12:30PM (plus 10 seconds) in Central European Time.

AccessControlList -> (list)

Information on principals (users and/or groups) and which documents they should have access to. This is useful for user context filtering, where search results are filtered based on the user or their group access to documents.

(structure)

Provides user and group information for user context filtering .

Name -> (string)

The name of the user or group.

Type -> (string)

The type of principal.

Access -> (string)

Whether to allow or deny document access to the principal.

DataSourceId -> (string)

The identifier of the data source the principal should access documents from.

HierarchicalAccessControlList -> (list)

The list of principal lists that define the hierarchy for which documents users should have access to.

(structure)

Information to define the hierarchy for which documents users should have access to.

PrincipalList -> (list)

A list of principal lists that define the hierarchy for which documents users should have access to. Each hierarchical list specifies which user or group has allow or deny access for each document.

(structure)

Provides user and group information for user context filtering .

Name -> (string)

The name of the user or group.

Type -> (string)

The type of principal.

Access -> (string)

Whether to allow or deny document access to the principal.

DataSourceId -> (string)

The identifier of the data source the principal should access documents from.

ContentType -> (string)

The file type of the document in the Blob field.

If you want to index snippets or subsets of HTML documents instead of the entirety of the HTML documents, you must add the HTML start and closing tags (<HTML>content</HTML> ) around the content.

AccessControlConfigurationId -> (string)

The identifier of the access control configuration that you want to apply to the document.

--cli-input-json (string) Performs service operation based on the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, the CLI values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally.

--generate-cli-skeleton (string) Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.
