Table 3 Request body parameters

Parameter	Mandatory	Type	Description
job_id	Yes	String	Task ID.
object_level_compare_type	No	String	Object-level comparison type. If the value is empty, the object-level comparison is not created. If both object_level_compare_type and data_level_compare_info are left empty, only the created comparison task list is queried. Value: objects
data_level_compare_info	No	CreateDataLevelCompareReq object	Data-level comparison information. If no data-level comparison is created, this parameter does not need to be transferred. If both object_level_compare_type and data_level_compare_info are left empty, only the created comparison task list is queried.

Table 4 CreateDataLevelCompareReq

Parameter	Mandatory	Type	Description
conflict_policy	Yes	String	Only one unfinished data-level comparison task can exist. This field determines how to process unfinished data-level comparison tasks. cancel: Cancel the task and create a new one. keep: Do not create a new task if the previous one is not complete. Values: cancel keep
compare_type	Yes	String	Data-level comparison type. lines: indicates row comparison. contents: value comparison. Values: lines contents
compare_mode	No	String	Data-level comparison mode. If the value is empty, the object information needs to be transferred in compare_object_infos or compare_object_infos_with_token. quick_comparison: indicates quick comparison, which can be used only by whitelisted users. Default value: quick_comparison Value: quick_comparison
start_time	No	String	Start time of a comparison task. If the value is empty, the task is started immediately.
compare_object_infos	No	Array of CompareObjectInfo objects	Data-level comparison object. In non-quick comparison mode, either compare_object_infos or compare_object_infos_with_token must be specified based on the migration scenario.
compare_object_infos_with_token	No	Array of CompareObjectInfoWithToken objects	Object for data-level comparison (Cassandra DR only, with token information). In non-quick comparison mode, either compare_object_infos or compare_object_infos_with_token must be specified based on the migration scenario.

Table 5 CompareObjectInfo

Parameter	Mandatory	Type	Description
db_name	Yes	String	Database name.
table_name	No	Array of strings	List of table names in the database.

Table 6 CompareObjectInfoWithToken

Parameter	Mandatory	Type	Description
db_name	Yes	String	Database name.
table_name_with_token	No	Array of CompareTableInfoWithToken objects	List of tables (with tokens) in the database.

Table 7 CompareTableInfoWithToken

Parameter	Mandatory	Type	Description
table_name	Yes	String	Table name
min_token	No	String	Min token of a table.
max_token	No	String	Max token of a table.
