Time Travel

Delta Lake supports Time Travelling which is loading a Delta table at a given version or timestamp (defined by path, versionAsOf or timestampAsOf options).

Delta Lake allows path option to include time travel patterns (@v123 and @yyyyMMddHHmmssSSS) unless the internal spark.databricks.delta.timeTravel.resolveOnIdentifier.enabled configuration property is turned off.

Time Travel cannot be specified for catalog delta tables.

Time travel is described using DeltaTimeTravelSpec.
