m running AIrbyte 1.8.5 and am trying to use GroupingPartitionRouter but cant seem to get it to work. Is it possible?

Based on the knowledge sources, yes, the
GroupingPartitionRouter
is available in Airbyte 1.8.5 and should be possible to use. According to the [YAML Reference documentation for version 1.8](https://docs.airbyte.com/platform/1.8/connector-development/config-based/understanding-the-yaml-file/reference#/definitions/GroupingPartitionRouter), the
GroupingPartitionRouter
is a decorator on top of a partition router that groups partitions into batches of a specified size. It's useful for APIs that support filtering by multiple partition keys in a single request. The
GroupingPartitionRouter
requires the following properties: - group_size (integer): The number of partitions to include in each group - underlying_partition_router: The partition router whose output will be grouped. This can be: -
ListPartitionRouter
-
SubstreamPartitionRouter
-
CustomPartitionRouter
- deduplicate (boolean, optional): If true, ensures that partitions are unique within each group The
GroupingPartitionRouter
is also supported in both the [SimpleRetriever](https://docs.airbyte.com/platform/1.8/connector-development/config-based/understanding-the-yaml-file/reference#/definitions/SimpleRetriever) and [AsyncRetriever](https://docs.airbyte.com/platform/1.8/connector-development/config-based/understanding-the-yaml-file/reference#/definitions/AsyncRetriever) components as part of the
partition_router
configuration. Important note: Per-partition incremental syncs may not work as expected with the
GroupingPartitionRouter
because the grouping of partitions might change between syncs, potentially leading to inconsistent state tracking. If you're having trouble getting it to work, could you share more details about the specific error or issue you're encountering? That would help identify what might be going wrong with your configuration.
