Class BigtableSource

java.lang.Object

io.github.flink.gcp.connector.bigtable.source.BigtableSource

@Public
public final class BigtableSource
extends Object

Reads rows from a Cloud Bigtable table.

 Source<Order, ?, ?> source =
         BigtableSource.<Order>builder()
                 .table(TableDestination.of("my-project", "my-instance", "orders"))
                 .deserializer(myDeserializer)
                 .prefix("2026-08-")
                 .build();
 

The scan is bounded: the source reads the configured ranges and finishes. That is not the same as batch-only — a bounded source runs inside a streaming pipeline and simply ends, which is what makes reading a Bigtable table and joining it against an unbounded stream work.
