upsert()

A MilvusClient interface. This method inserts new entities into a specified collection, and replaces them if the entities already exist.

R<MutationResult> upsert(UpsertParam requestParam);

UpsertParam

Use the UpsertParam.Builder to construct an UpsertParam object.

import io.milvus.param.UpsertParam;
UpsertParam.Builder builder = UpsertParam.newBuilder();

Methods of UpsertParam.Builder:

Method	Description	Parameters
withCollectionName(String collectionName)	Sets the target collection name. Collection name cannot be empty or null.	collectionName: The name of the collection to insert data into.
withDatabaseName(String databaseName)	Sets the database name. database name can be null for default database.	databaseName: The database name.
withPartitionName(String partitionName)	Sets the target partition name(optional).	partitionName: The name of the partition to insert data into.
withFields(List<InsertParam.Field> fields)	Sets the column-based data to be inserted. The fields list cannot be empty. Note that no input is required for the primary key field if auto-id is enabled.	fields: A list of Field objects, each representing a field.
withRows(List<gson.JsonObject> rows)	Sets the row-based data to be inserted. The row list cannot be empty. Note that if the withFields() is called, the rows by withRows() will be ignored.	rows: A list of gson.JsonObject objects, each representing a row in key-value format. For each field: - If dataType is Bool/Int8/Int16/Int32/Int64/Float/Double/Varchar, use JsonObject.addProperty(key, value) to input; - If dataType is FloatVector, use JsonObject.add(key, gson.toJsonTree(List[Float]) to input; - If dataType is BinaryVector/Float16Vector/BFloat16Vector, use JsonObject.add(key, gson.toJsonTree(byte[])) to input; - If dataType is SparseFloatVector, use JsonObject.add(key, gson.toJsonTree(SortedMap[Long, Float])) to input; - If dataType is Array, use JsonObject.add(key, gson.toJsonTree(List of Boolean/Integer/Short/Long/Float/Double/String)) to input; - If dataType is JSON, use JsonObject.add(key, JsonElement) to input; Note: 1. For scalar numeric values, value will be cut according to the type of the field. For example: An Int8 field named "XX", you set the value to be 128 by JsonObject.addProperty("XX", 128), the value 128 is cut to -128. An Int64 field named "XX", you set the value to be 3.9 by JsonObject.addProperty("XX", 3.9), the value 3.9 is cut to 3. 2. String value can be parsed to numeric/boolean type if the value is valid. For example: A Bool field named "XX", you set the value to be "TRUE" by JsonObject.addProperty("XX", "TRUE"), the string "TRUE" is parsed as true. A Float field named "XX", you set the value to be "3.5" by JsonObject.addProperty("XX", "3.5", the string "3.5" is parsed as 3.5.
build()	Constructs an InsertParam object.	N/A

notes

In Java SDK versions v2.4.1 or earlier versions, the input is a fastjson.JSONObject. But fastjson is not recommended to use now because of its unsafe deserialization vulnerability. Therefore, replace fastjson with gson if you use the Java SDK of v2.4.2 or later releases.

The UpsertParam.Builder.build() can throw the following exceptions:

ParamException: error if the parameter is invalid.

Returns

If the API fails on the server side, it returns the error code and message from the server.
If the API fails by RPC exception, it returns R.Status.Unknown and the error message of the exception.
If the API succeeds, it returns a valid MutationResult held by the R template. You can use MutationResultWrapper to get the returned information.

Example

import io.milvus.param.*;
import io.milvus.response.MutationResultWrapper;
import io.milvus.grpc.MutationResult;
import com.google.gson.Gson;
import com.google.gson.JsonObject;

List<List<Float>> vectors = generateFloatVectors(1);
List<JsonObject> rows = new ArrayList<>();
JsonObject row = new JsonObject();
row.addProperty("id", (long)i);
row.add("vector", gson.toJsonTree(vectors.get(0)));
rows.add(row);

UpsertParam param = UpsertParam.newBuilder()
        .withCollectionName(COLLECTION_NAME)
        .withRows(rows)
        .build();

R<MutationResult> response = client.upsert(param);
if (response.getStatus() != R.Status.Success.getCode()) {
    System.out.println(response.getMessage());
}

MutationResultWrapper wrapper = new MutationResultWrapper(response.getData());
System.out.println(wrapper.getInsertCount() + " rows upserted");
