Sources Updates

  • SQL Server - a new option has been introduced that enables the retrieval of deleted rows. When using Change Tracking as the extraction mode and using Snowflake or Databricks as the Target," this option allows you to recover deleted records. The key fields of the deleted rows will remain unchanged, while all other fields will be set to NULL. This enhancement provides more flexibility and control in your data extraction process.
