Hi , I made a successful connection google sheet as source and snowflake as destination. I am able to launch successfully. But problem is not reading and populating data in snowflake DB. Could anyone please help me why its not reading data the googlesheet data?

What does your source configuration look like for this?
Also, could you share the logs for the sync? (you can click on one of the runs and then there’s a button to download the logs)

@Jared Rhizor (Airbyte): Source configuration

What kind of machine is this running on? Mac? Linux?
n
@Jared Rhizor (Airbyte) - Linux
its hosted in EC2 - AMazon Linux2 server
j
Could you also share the connection configuration? You can get that by clicking on the source and then the destination and clicking on the
Settings

@Jared Rhizor (Airbyte): Source & destination:
j
Sorry it’s a bit confusing
if you click on sources on the left, and then clikc on your specific source, and then click on the snowflake destination
you should be on a page that has the title “From {source} to {destination}”
That settings tab should show which streams you’re selecting
n
@Jared Rhizor (Airbyte): Below details you looking for?
j
yeah, that’s it
can you open the dropdown for
Sheet1
and screenshot that?
n
@Jared Rhizor (Airbyte): it shows my old googlesheet file
j
ok so I think I can tell what the problem is
Did you change the headers in the spreadsheet after setting up the sync?
n
yes I completely changed the google sheet itself. not only headers.
j
We have a ticket we’re actively working on that should make it possible to update the schema used for syncing https://github.com/airbytehq/airbyte/issues/1401
That feature should be released in about a week
Unfortunately until then the only way to fix this is to delete and recreate the source
n
Got it. I will try deleting the source and retry it
Thanks Jared
j
Happy to help.
For your actual use case, do you expect to have headers changing frequently?
n
@Jared Rhizor (Airbyte): No, I was doing some poc, instead of big file, picked small one to test out. So in connection I changed the spreadsheet id.
After recreating the source connection, it worked fine
j
great!
n
@Jared Rhizor (Airbyte): regarding headers change frequently - yes, some columns will be added or removed

For the short term (in about a week) we’re adding support to make it possible to manually update the schema/headers you want to sync.
Later this year we’re planning on adding support for more automatic schema update handling.
