Successful Response

- SyncConfigurationModel — Bucket-scoped configuration for automated storage synchronization. Defines how files are synced from external storage providers to a Mixpeek bucket. Includes configuration, status, metrics, and robustness control fields. **Supported Providers:** google_drive, s3, snowflake, sharepoint, tigris **Built-in Robustness:** - Distributed locking (locked_by_worker_id, lock_expires_at) - Pause/resume control (paused, pause_reason, paused_at) - Safety limits (max_objects_per_run, batch_chunk_size) - Resume checkpointing (resume_cursor, resume_objects_processed) - Batch tracking (batch_ids, task_ids, batches_created) **Metrics Fields:** - total_files_discovered: Files found in source - total_files_synced: Successfully synced files - total_files_failed: Files that failed (check DLQ) - total_bytes_synced: Total data transferred - consecutive_failures: Failure count for auto-suspend
  - `sync_config_id` string — Unique identifier for the sync configuration.
  - `bucket_id` string, required — Target bucket identifier (e.g. 'bkt_marketing_assets').
  - `connection_id` string, required — Storage connection identifier (e.g. 'conn_abc123').
  - `internal_id` string, required — Organization internal identifier (multi-tenancy scope).
  - `namespace_id` string, required — Namespace identifier owning the bucket.
  - `source_path` string, required — Source path in the external storage provider. Format varies by provider: s3/tigris='bucket/prefix', google_drive='folder_id', sharepoint='/sites/Name/Documents', snowflake='DB.SCHEMA.TABLE'.
  - `file_filters` FileFilters — Filter rules controlling which files are synced from storage providers. All filters are optional and combined with AND logic. Files must pass ALL specified filters to be synced. **Pattern Matching:** Uses glob patterns (*, ?, [abc], etc.) **Size Filtering:** Bytes-based, inclusive bounds **Time Filtering:** ISO 8601 datetime, based on provider's modified timestamp
    - `include_patterns` string[], nullable — Glob patterns to include (e.g. ['*.mp4', '*.mov']).
    - `exclude_patterns` string[], nullable — Glob patterns to exclude (e.g. ['*/drafts/*', '*_temp.*']).
    - `min_size_bytes` integer, nullable — Minimum file size (bytes). Files smaller are skipped.
    - `max_size_bytes` integer, nullable — Maximum file size (bytes). Files larger are skipped.
    - `modified_after` string, date-time, nullable — Only sync files modified after this timestamp.
    - `modified_before` string, date-time, nullable — Only sync files modified before this timestamp.
    - `mime_types` string[], nullable — Optional list of MIME types to include.
    - `metadata_filters` MetadataFilter[], nullable — Filters applied to provider-specific metadata fields. All filters combined with AND logic.
      - `field` string, required
      - `operator` 'equals' | 'not_equals' | 'contains' | 'not_contains' | 'gt' | 'lt' | 'gte' | 'lte' | 'exists'
      - `value` union
        - string
        - integer
        - number
        - boolean
  - `schema_mapping` SchemaMappingOutput — Complete schema mapping configuration for a sync. Defines how source data (files, tags, metadata, columns) maps to the target bucket schema. Each key is a target field/blob name in the bucket. **Key Concepts:** - Keys are target bucket schema field names - Values define the source and extraction method - At least one blob mapping is typically required for file syncs - Field mappings extract metadata alongside the file content **Provider Examples:** **S3/Tigris Video Sync:** ```json { "content": { "target_type": "blob", "source": {"type": "file"}, "blob_type": "video" }, "category": { "target_type": "field", "source": {"type": "tag", "key": "category"} }, "source_bucket": { "target_type": "field", "source": {"type": "constant", "value": "production-videos"} } } ``` **Snowflake Customer Table Sync:** ```json { "customer_name": { "target_type": "field", "source": {"type": "column", "name": "NAME"} }, "profile_image": { "target_type": "blob", "source": {"type": "column", "name": "AVATAR_URL"}, "blob_type": "image" }, "segment": { "target_type": "field", "source": {"type": "column", "name": "CUSTOMER_SEGMENT"}, "transform": "lowercase" } } ``` **Google Drive with Folder Categories:** ```json { "content": { "target_type": "blob", "source": {"type": "file"}, "blob_type": "auto" }, "department": { "target_type": "field", "source": {"type": "folder_path", "segment": 0}, "transform": "lowercase" }, "description": { "target_type": "field", "source": {"type": "drive_property", "key": "description"} } } ``` Attributes: mappings: Dictionary mapping target field names to their source extractors
    - `mappings` object, required — Dictionary mapping target field names to their source extractors. Keys are bucket schema field names (e.g., 'content', 'category'). Values are mapping entries defining how to extract and store the data. At least one blob mapping (target_type='blob') is recommended for file syncs.
  - `sync_mode` 'initial_only' | 'continuous' — Supported sync modes for external storage ingestion.
  - `polling_interval_seconds` integer — Polling interval in seconds (continuous mode). Up to 86400 (1 day) — slow intervals are a legitimate ops throttle (e.g. deliberately deprioritizing freshness lanes during a backfill), and the read model must accept any value the platform itself may have stored.
  - `batch_size` integer — Number of files processed per sync batch.
  - `create_object_on_confirm` boolean — Whether objects should be created immediately after confirmation.
  - `skip_duplicates` boolean — Skip files whose hashes already exist in the bucket.
  - `skip_batch_submission` boolean — Sync-only mode: download and store files in the bucket without running them through the collection processing pipeline. Set to True during initial bulk ingestion, then flip to False to trigger processing once all files are synced.
  - `reconcile` ReconcileSettings — Controls how Mixpeek reconciles objects when the source changes.
    - `on_delete` boolean — When a source asset is deleted, cascade-delete the corresponding Mixpeek objects (and their collection documents). Default True.
    - `on_update` boolean — When a source asset's metadata changes, propagate the update to the Mixpeek object and re-process it through connected collections. Default True.
    - `on_filter_drift` boolean — During reconciliation, remove objects whose source asset no longer matches the configured metadata_filters. Default True.
    - `re_extract_on_update` boolean — When on_update is True, also re-extract (rebatch) the object through its connected collections. Set to False to propagate metadata changes without triggering re-extraction. Default True.
    - `re_extract_fields` string[], nullable — When set, only re-extract if one of these specific fields changed. Field names are matched against the source metadata keys. If None (default), any metadata change triggers re-extraction (when re_extract_on_update is True). Example: ['title', 'description', 'media_type']
  - `status` 'PENDING' | 'QUEUED' | 'IN_PROGRESS' | 'PROCESSING' | 'COMPLETED' | 'COMPLETED_WITH_ERRORS' | 'FAILED' | 'CANCELED' | 'INTERRUPTED' | 'UNKNOWN' | 'SKIPPED' | 'DRAFT' | 'ACTIVE' | 'ARCHIVED' | 'SUSPENDED' | 'DEACTIVATED' — Enumeration of task statuses for tracking asynchronous operations. Task statuses indicate the current state of asynchronous operations like batch processing, object ingestion, clustering, and taxonomy execution. Status Categories: Operation Statuses: Track progress of async operations Lifecycle Statuses: Track entity state (buckets, collections, namespaces) Values: PENDING: Task is queued but has not started processing yet IN_PROGRESS: Task is currently being executed PROCESSING: Task is actively processing data (similar to IN_PROGRESS) COMPLETED: Task finished successfully with no errors COMPLETED_WITH_ERRORS: Task finished but some items failed (partial success) FAILED: Task encountered an error and could not complete CANCELED: Task was manually canceled by a user or system UNKNOWN: Task status could not be determined SKIPPED: Task was intentionally skipped DRAFT: Task is in draft state and not yet submitted ACTIVE: Entity is active and operational (for buckets, collections, etc.) ARCHIVED: Entity has been archived SUSPENDED: Entity has been temporarily suspended Terminal Statuses: COMPLETED, COMPLETED_WITH_ERRORS, FAILED, CANCELED are terminal statuses. Once a task reaches these states, it will not transition to another state. Partial Success Handling: COMPLETED_WITH_ERRORS indicates that the operation completed but some documents/items failed. The task result includes: - List of successful items - List of failed items with error details - Success rate percentage This allows clients to handle partial success scenarios appropriately. Polling Guidance: - Poll tasks in PENDING, QUEUED, IN_PROGRESS, or PROCESSING states - Stop polling when task reaches COMPLETED, COMPLETED_WITH_ERRORS, FAILED, or CANCELED - Use exponential backoff (1s → 30s) when polling
  - `is_active` boolean — Convenience flag used for filtering active syncs.
  - `total_files_discovered` integer — Cumulative count of files found in source across all runs.
  - `total_files_synced` integer — Cumulative count of successfully synced files.

  - `total_bytes_synced` integer — Cumulative bytes transferred across all runs.
  - `created_at` string, date-time — When sync configuration was created.
  - `updated_at` string, date-time — Last modification timestamp.
  - `last_sync_at` string, date-time, nullable — When last successful sync completed. Used for incremental syncs.
  - `per_shard_last_sync_at` object — Per-shard last-sync timestamps keyed by shard value (e.g. collection_id). When a new shard is added, its absence here forces a full scan even if the global last_sync_at is set.
  - `next_sync_at` string, date-time, nullable — Scheduled time for next sync (continuous/scheduled modes).
  - `created_by_user_id` string, required — User identifier that created the sync configuration.
  - `last_error` string, nullable — Most recent error message if sync attempts failed.
  - `consecutive_failures` integer
  - `provider_filters` object — Provider-specific pre-filters pushed down to the API call. The sync engine passes these to iter_objects() without interpretation. Each provider defines its own schema. Applied BEFORE file_filters. Examples: Iconik {'collection_ids': [...]}, Google Drive {'shared_drive_id': '...'}
  - `source_type` string, nullable — Storage provider type for API progress views (for example: s3, google_drive, iconik).
  - `metadata` object — Arbitrary metadata supplied by the user.
  - `locked_by_worker_id` string, nullable — Worker ID that currently holds the lock for this sync
  - `locked_at` string, date-time, nullable — Timestamp when lock was acquired
  - `lock_expires_at` string, date-time, nullable — Timestamp when lock expires (for stale lock recovery)
  - `pending_full_sync` boolean — A full sweep was requested (trigger?full_sync=true) while a run held the lock. The finishing run dispatches it automatically on lock release.
  - `paused` boolean — Whether sync is currently paused (user-controlled)
  - `pause_reason` string, nullable — Reason for pause
  - `paused_at` string, date-time, nullable — Timestamp when paused
  - `paused_by_user_id` string, nullable — User who paused the sync
  - `max_objects_per_run` integer — Hard cap on objects per sync run (prevents runaway syncs)
  - `max_batch_chunk_size` integer — Maximum objects per batch chunk
  - `batch_chunk_size` integer — Number of objects per batch chunk (for concurrent processing)
  - `current_sync_run_id` string, nullable — UUID for current/last sync run
  - `sync_run_counter` integer — Increments on each sync execution
  - `batch_ids` string[] — List of batch IDs created by this sync
  - `task_ids` string[] — List of task IDs for batches

  - `resume_last_primary_key` string, nullable — Last primary key processed (for database syncs with stable ordering)
  - `resume_objects_processed` integer — Count of objects processed in current/last run
  - `resume_checkpoint_frequency` integer — How often to checkpoint (in objects). Default: every 1000 objects
  - `current_cursor` string, nullable — Convenience mirror of the current resume cursor for API progress views.
  - `sync_checkpoints` object — Per-(config, shard) high-water checkpoints keyed by shard key (e.g. collection_id for parallel fan-outs, 'pages_N_M' for page-range shards, '__default__' for unsharded runs). Each entry holds: pass_id (lexicographically-ordered pass marker), cursor (provider cursor, e.g. JSON-encoded Iconik search_after), objects_processed (forward-only progress guard), modified_since (incremental filter frozen at pass start), completed_at (set when the shard drained its source — the next cycle wraps around to a fresh full pass only after the polling cadence elapses), and updated_at. A NEW job resumes each shard from its checkpoint instead of re-walking from page 1 (2026-06-11 re-scan treadmill).
  - `schedule` object, nullable — Derived scheduling summary: mode, interval, next run, and last successful run.
  - `sync_progress` object — Derived progress summary for API observability.
  - `locked` boolean, required — Whether a worker currently holds this sync's run lock.
