Supported in: Batch

Joins two datasets together, keeping only rows that satisfy the provided condition from each table.

Transform categories: Join

Declared arguments

  • Condition for columns to select on the left - All columns in the left input schema will be tested to see if they match this condition. If they match, the column will be selected in the output.
    ColumnPredicate
  • Condition for columns to select on the right - All columns in the right input schema will be tested to see if they match this condition. If they match, the column will be selected in the output.
    ColumnPredicate
  • Join condition - Condition on which to join.
    Expression<Boolean>
  • Left dataset - Left dataset to use in join.
    Table
  • Right dataset - Right dataset to use in join.
    Table
  • optional Prefix for columns from right - Prefix to add to all columns on the right hand side.
    Literal<String>
