I’m liking airbyte, thanks! Do you handle postgis geometry types in postgres?

Hi Jim, our database type handling is currently based off the JDBC specification, which doesn’t contain geospatial types. Geospatial types are currently converted to strings in the destination database
Is this something you are specifically looking for?
We have an open issue to expand the types we address. feel free to comment there! https://github.com/airbytehq/airbyte/issues/1006

Thanks! I’ll do some testing with it. Do you know if the spatial type converts to wkt string in the target database?

I’m not sure. I’d have to do some testing. Probably won’t get to it today so if you get to it first, I’d be curious to find out 🙂
