Create stream for existing dataset

user02741

 

I created a dataset with the Dataset API and since I want to APPEND (not UPDATE/REPLACE) data, I need to use the Stream API. However, creating a stream requires a dataset object. Can I create a new stream for my existing dataset? If so, how?

You are correct, updating with the Stream API requires a stream id and there will not be one for a dataset that was created with the dataset API. If you need to append, then you will need to create a new dataset with the streams API. You could use Dataflow transforms within Domo to Union the two datasets together if needed.
