  • When saving inbound configuration, store any newer json schemas in case the sync is edited again before the next sync


V1.105

  • Trace events in Streamlit are now logged asyncronously


V1.99

V1.96

Created: 2024-06-24

V1.95

Created: 2024-06-24

  • Plugins reporting total record estimates for streams now show a progress bar in the UI

  • Fixed an issue for inbound syncs, where default inbound storage locations would fail to delete tables when the sync is deleted

  • Fixed an issue where inbound streams may show as both "completed" and "successful"


V1.94

Created: 2024-06-23

  • Fixed issue where outbound staging duplicate detection is not isolated by sync branch

  • Fixed an inbound sync error affecting the most recent plugin runtime

  • New async results processing now only occurs on plugin runtime 0.4.2, where results are guaranteed to be uploaded before stream status updates

Created: 2024-06-22

  • Inbound syncs now have their deadline and cancellation monitored by the sync engine (thanks to the new async query support)

  • Post-processing of completed streams now happens during the sync run, so that cancelled/abandoned syncs save progress more reliably

  • Plugins can now report a total count of records ahead of time

  • Update inline product help

  • Fixed an issue where editing existing syncs could result in the inbound storage location being reset to the default

  • Outbound record staging now detects duplicate identifiers prior to the record state being updated. This reduces the need for manual record cleanup if you accidentally introduce duplicates in your source table

V1.88

Created: 2024-06-08

  • Switched Streamlit record selectors from experimental_data_editor to data_editor


V1.87

V1.85

Created: 2024-06-02

  • A default custom storage location for inbound syncs can now be configured globally


V1.82

Created: 2024-05-21

  • Provided ability for users to bring their own GPG/SSH keys during connection creation

  • When prompting the user to deploy the ngrok agent, the address and port are now prompted for, and the specific cli command or service configuration file are provided


V1.81

  • Fixed an error where ngrok resources are not cleaned up when connections are deleted

  • Fixed error that may occur when editing connections with ngrok tunnels

  • Removed the requirement that plugins return a list of errored streams from the SYNC_INBOUND operation. This simplifies deferring the operation to other languages like java.

  • When hovering on the help text for a custom cron schedule, a human readable description is now shown instead of the cron expression

  • All streamlit dependencies are now pinned to specific package versions, to ensure Anaconda availability


V1.67

Created: 2024-03-27

  • Fixed an issue where outbound sync pre-flight checks would fail due to source table not being quoted correctly

  • Provided a fallback configuration option for new streams when the plugin runtime is less than 0.3.19

  • Provided a maintenance process which deletes Sync Record State History older than a configurable number of days, to reduce storage costs at high record volume

  • Fixed an issue where the append storage behaviour would create duplicate records


V1.65

Created: 2024-03-25

  • For full refreshes, the term "Replace" has been deprecated in favour of "Merge"

  • Upgraded the UI to Streamlit 1.26.0

  • Fixed streamlit warning on pre-populated checkboxes on sync configuration forms


V1.63

Created: 2024-03-21

  • Added a button on the inbound sync run screen to refresh the list of streams


V1.62

Created: 2024-03-19

  • The total number of inbound records for a run is now logged pre and post deduplication. A warning is logged if deduplication removed records.

  • Fixed an issue with the new deletion functionality, where the new sync engine version was not compatible with older runtime versions

  • Fixed an issue where non-empty inbound runs were hidden by the "Hide empty completed runs" checkbox


V1.61

Created: 2024-03-17

  • After clearing state for an inbound sync, the table is truncated when applying the results for the next run


V1.60

Created: 2024-03-15

  • The "Append" inbound storage behaviour now only stores changed records, making it much more storage efficient when used with the Full Refresh strategy.

  • Inbound sync tables now contain a flag which indicates when the record has been deleted at the source. When using the Full Refresh strategy, this is maintained automatically via the absence of previous records.

  • Inbound sync tables now contain the run id that the most recent change for each record belongs to.

  • Plugins can now provide individual record deletions, and also deletions by criteria for inbound incremental syncs. This requires omnata-plugin-runtime version 0.3.15 or greater.

  • When a sync runs for longer than its configured limit, it is assumed failed and can be re-ran. The previous run will be marked as failed when this occurs.

  • Sync run id is now included in event span attributes, to make it easier to filter event table queries

  • When comparing branch stream configurations, the stream state is no longer included in the comparison.

  • Fixed issue with Sync History tab where incomplete outbound syncs did not render correctly

  • Inbound stream cursor field now has the default value applied to it at initial sync creation, so that plugins don't need to check both values

  • Fully deprecated the internal Sync Run Log table in favour of event tables

  • Added the PLUGIN_UPDATE_API_CONFIGURATION stored procedure, which can reset the integrations and secret bindings for plugin udfs/procedures

  • Fixed Streamlit error when switching between full and incremental inbound sync strategy for a single stream

Created: 2024-03-06

  • Fixed streamlit UI error on sync home screen when production connection is not yet configured for inbound syncs in branch mode

  • Fixed issue when nominating a production connection for inbound syncs

  • When presenting dbt model configuration for streams, handled the scenario where JSON schema is not available

V1.57

Created: 2024-03-06

In normalized views, object fields are now supported as columns


V1.56

Created: 2024-03-05
