Hello people, is there a a flink sql kafka connector for Fkink 1.20? I could not find one here https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.apache.flink/flink-connector-kafka . I need to use 1.20 because I would like to use the latest Collection Functions in FlinkSQL (such as SPLIT) 🙂. If not, is it safe to use the 1.19 one ?

Connectors has their own release cycle with Flink version compatibility , kafka latest version was 3.2 which was release before 1.20. Ideally you would wait the next release 3.3 or even use the latest with 1.20 but this doesn't guarantee It will support a specific feature, you could open a Jira ticket to which specific features should be supported ahead of publishing a 1.20 compatible version

I see, what I am doing is not really production yet so I will try my luck the latest version 🙂 and have a alarm to switch to the officially supported one when it is out. Thanks!

The 3.2 1.19 connector worked like a charm for me with flink 1.20 :)
