is_v1_kv_transfer_group 

is_v1_kv_transfer_group(

Check if the KV connector is the v1 connector. If the argument is None, it will check the global KV connector

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
connector Optional[KVConnectorBaseType]

The KV connector to check. If None, it will check the global KV connector.

 None
Note

This function will no-longer be needed after the v1 KV connector becomes the default.
