Output Dataset

I have a recipe that writes to an existing dataset that has content. However, I cannot figure out to do this. An output dataset set up in input/outputs tab must not already exist. Is this possible? Thanks.

Hi @Erlebacher,

This would only be possible if you do via a code recipe and use ignore_flow=True and you must have a least a dummy output set to any other recipes

https://doc.dataiku.com/dss/latest/python-api/datasets-reference.html#dataiku.Dataset

But in most cases, it would not be recommended, and you should've written to separate the dataset from the separate recipe and then, if needed, stack the dataset or sync with append to another dataset.

Thanks
