It seems like you are experiencing issues with Airbyte not picking up the schema from your Redpanda topic. Based on the available knowledge sources, here are a few steps and considerations that might help you troubleshoot and resolve this issue: 1. Output Schema Format: Ensure that the data being written to the Redpanda topic follows the expected format. According to the [Redpanda destination documentation](https://docs.airbyte.com/integrations/destinations/redpanda#redpanda), each record should contain: - `_airbyte_ab_id`: a UUID assigned by Airbyte to each event. - `_airbyte_emitted_at`: a timestamp representing when the event was pulled from the data source. - `_airbyte_data`: a JSON blob representing the event data. Make sure your data conforms to this structure. 2. Schema Change Management: Airbyte provides options for detecting and propagating schema changes. You can manually refresh the source schema to ensure it is up to date with any changes. Here’s how you can do it: - In the Airbyte UI, click Connections and then click the connection you want to refresh. - Click the Schema tab. - In the Select streams table, click Refresh source schema to fetch the schema of your data source. - Review any changes in the Refreshed source schema dialog. For more details, refer to the [manual schema refresh documentation](https://docs.airbyte.com/using-airbyte/schema-change-management#manually-refresh-the-source-schema). 3. Schema Change Detection Settings: Ensure that your schema change detection settings are configured correctly. Airbyte offers several options for how it should detect and propagate schema changes: - Propagate field changes only: Only column changes will be propagated. - Propagate all field and stream changes: All new streams and column changes from the source will automatically be propagated. - Approve all changes myself: Detect and manually approve changes. - Stop future syncs: Connections will be paused as soon as any schema changes are detected. For more information, see the [schema change management documentation](https://docs.airbyte.com/using-airbyte/schema-change-management#detect-and-propagate-schema-changes). 4. Notifications: Ensure you have enabled schema update notifications to stay informed about any changes. You can enable these notifications in the connection's settings under Advanced Settings by toggling Schema update notifications. For more details, refer to the [notification settings documentation](https://docs.airbyte.com/cloud/managing-airbyte-cloud/manage-airbyte-cloud-notifications#enabling-schema-update-notifications). If you have followed these steps and are still experiencing issues, it might be helpful to check the logs for any errors or warnings that could provide more insight into the problem. If the issue persists, consider reaching out to the Airbyte community or support for further assistance.
