If anyone in the community has experience with the Connector Builder, I would appreciate any insights.

The Airbyte Connector Builder is a no-code tool within the Airbyte UI designed to make building source connectors straightforward and accessible, even for those without deep coding experience. It provides an intuitive interface on top of a low-code YAML format, allowing you to visually configure connectors and switch to direct YAML editing if needed. The Builder is only for creating source connectors, not destination connectors. Key features and workflow: - You access the Connector Builder from the Airbyte web app by selecting "Builder" in the sidebar. - You configure global settings, user inputs, and streams using schema-driven forms with built-in validation and real-time feedback. - Once your connector is ready, you can publish it to your workspace for immediate use or contribute it to the Airbyte catalog. - The Builder supports exporting the YAML manifest for sharing or further editing. - It is recommended to avoid hardcoding sensitive information like API keys; instead, use testing values during development and user inputs in production. - The Builder is best suited for APIs accessible via HTTP (REST, GraphQL) that return JSON or JSONL, with CSV and XML support coming soon. - If you need more complex logic, you can use Airbyte’s Low-Code CDK directly. Additional tools: - The AI Assistant (in beta) can help automate and prefill many configuration steps, further speeding up connector development. It reads API documentation, suggests configurations, and helps with stream setup, but human review is still required to ensure correctness. If you’re looking for community insights, the documentation suggests joining the dedicated [Slack channel](https://airbytehq.slack.com/archives/C027KKE4BCZ) for connector development, where you can search previous discussions or ask questions directly to other users and Airbyte team members. For a step-by-step example and more details, you can follow the [official tutorial](https://docs.airbyte.com/platform/connector-development/connector-builder-ui/tutorial) or explore the concept pages on authentication, pagination, incremental sync, and more within the documentation itself. Reviews for contributed connectors typically take under a week, and you can also export and share your connector’s YAML manifest with others for feedback or collaboration.
