Today, we are excited to release Meltano version 1.55.0, which (among other things) adds out-of-the-box support for the datamill-co and transferwise (aka PipelineWise) variants of target-snowflake. The datamill-co variant is recommended for new users and is now the default, but the original meltano variant is still supported.
Special thanks go out to Nil for contributing a bug fix to stop meltano init from failing when the underlying filesystem doesn’t support symlinks!
Excited to try it out?
To upgrade Meltano and your Meltano project to the latest version, navigate to your project directory, activate the appropriate virtual environment, and run meltano upgrade. This will upgrade the meltano package and apply any necessary changes to your project.
