Required Parameters

name

A descriptive name for the node. This is the name that will appear in pipeline builder and you can reference this node in the YAML using the name. It must be unique across all nodes. It is a YAML list element so it begins with a - and a space followed by the string. It is a required parameter for all nodes.

nodes:
  - name: <node name>
    type: <node type>

type: digitalocean_spaces_output

The type parameter specifies the type of node being configured. It is specified as a string from a closed list of node types. It is a required parameter.

nodes:
  - name: <node name>
    type: <node type>

endpoint

The endpoint parameter defines the DigitalOcean Spaces URI. It is specified as a string and is required.

nodes:
- name: <node name>
  type: digitalocean_spaces_output
  endpoint: <endpoint>
  bucket: <bucket>
  access_key: <key>
  secret_key: <secret key>

bucket

The bucket parameter defines the DigitalOcean Spaces target bucket to use. It is specified as a string and is required.

nodes:
- name: <node name>
  type: digitalocean_spaces_output
  endpoint: <endpoint>
  bucket: <bucket>
  access_key: <key>
  secret_key: <secret key>

access_key

The access_key parameter defines the access key to authorize access to the bucket. It is specified as a string and is a required parameter.

nodes:
- name: <node name>
  type: digitalocean_spaces_output
  endpoint: <endpoint>
  bucket: <bucket>
  access_key: <key>
  secret_key: <secret key>

secret_key

The secret_key parameter defines the secret key to authorize access to the bucket. It is specified as a string and is a required parameter.

nodes:
- name: <node name>
  type: digitalocean_spaces_output
  endpoint: <endpoint>
  bucket: <bucket>

Optional Parameters

compression

The compression parameter specifies the compression format. It can be gzip, zstd, snappy or uncompressed. It is specified as a string, has a default of gzip, and it is optional.

nodes:
- name: <node name>
  type: digitalocean_spaces_output
  endpoint: <endpoint>
  bucket: <bucket>
  access_key: <key>
  secret_key: <secret key>
  compression: gzip | zstd | snappy | uncompressed

schema

The schema parameter specifies the schema format for archived data. It can be Archive or Raw. It is specified as a string, has a default of Archive, and is optional.

• Archive - Uses the structured Edge Delta archive format (ArchiveLogPayload) for the archived data. This is the standard format that preserves the Edge Delta data structure. When used with deotelized data, it wraps the transformed data in the ArchiveLogPayload format.
• Raw - Uploads incoming items (Log, Metric, Trace, Custom) directly as map[string]any to the archive destination, preserving the data in its raw format after any transformations. Use this option when:
  • Working with deotelized data from a multiprocessor step and you want to preserve it in its transformed map[string]any format
  • The development binary doesn’t handle parquet encoding properly
  • You want to bypass Edge Delta’s standard archive structure
