Bucket Name
The Google Cloud Storage bucket name that you want to connect to.
When you select a source object , the Package Explorer lists files and folders available in the specified Google Cloud Storage bucket.
If you do not specify a bucket name, you can select a bucket from the Package Explorer to select a source.
Optimize Object Metadata Import
Optimizes the import of metadata for the selected object without parsing other objects, folders, or sub-folders available in the bucket.
Directly importing metadata for the selected object can improve performance by reducing the overhead and time taken to parse each object available in the bucket.
Default is not selected.
If you enable the option for an existing data loader task, you need to reimport the metadata by reselecting the object that you want to exclude.
