Hello, my team would like to use Airbyte in production to fetch our client data on Shopify. However from what I can see on the Airbyte documentation, the connector is in alpha version. I would like to know if it is safe to use it in prod ? We would like from our customer to download our shopify app and then run an ELT process with Airbyte after getting an access token.

You can read about connector badge levels here: https://docs.airbyte.com/integrations/#connector-release-stages evaluate the risks as your project demands.

From my experience, if an Airbyte connector works, it will continue working if no schema changes on the API happened. So, it can be safe to use in production, but I also studied my connectors so if anything happened I was ready to support by myself, modifying the code if needed. The connectors are very simple and can be easily updated if needed

I see, thanks !
