WRITER_MODE
Note: For more information on this directive, see Writer Mode.
This directive determines which operations will be performed by default by this writer.
This operation can be set to INSERT, UPDATE or DELETE. The default writer level value for this operation can be overwritten at the feature type or table level. The corresponding feature type def parameter name is called azure_table_writer_mode. It has the same valid options as the writer level mode and additionally the value INHERIT_FROM_WRITER which causes the writer level mode to be inherited by the feature type as the default for features contained in that table.
If the WRITER_MODE statement is not specified, then a value of INSERT is given.
