The knowledge sources do not explicitly say you can
switch the destination of an existing connection to a different destination; instead, they describe creating and managing destinations and connections separately. What is documented: - You can
modify an existing connection’s settings (schedule, namespace, stream config, etc.) from the connection’s page, but changing the destination is not listed among the editable options.[[Cloud connections](
https://docs.airbyte.com/platform/cloud/managing-airbyte-cloud/configuring-connections); [Next connections](
https://docs.airbyte.com/platform/next/cloud/managing-airbyte-cloud/configuring-connections)] - You can
create a new destination connector and then
create a new connection that uses that destination.[[Add destination](
https://docs.airbyte.com/platform/using-airbyte/getting-started/add-a-destination)] Because the docs only show changing configuration
within a connection and not swapping its destination, the safe, documented path is: 1. Create/configure the new destination. 2. Create a new connection from the same source to this new destination, matching the settings of the old connection. 3. Optionally disable or delete the old connection once you’re satisfied with the new one. If you specifically need to “reuse” the same connection ID (for example, for tooling that depends on it), the knowledge sources do not provide guidance on that.
