Salesforce documentation states that if you want to use an upsert, you need to specifiy a single unique column in the metadata file. Since there is no single unique column in the csv file and we don't have the metadata file, upsert won't work. Hence Overwrite is the only possible solution-

Update is even not an option in the documentation. Overwrite is the correct answer: https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.bi_dev_guide_ext_data.meta/bi_dev_guide_ext_data/bi_ext_data_object_externaldata.htm
