Hi, setting up Meltano for the first time. I’ve added target-bigquery (z3z1ma) and configured credentials - is there a way to test it besides trying to
meltano run
to it?

Theres a
test
command for taps but its not implemented for targets yet https://github.com/meltano/sdk/issues/1088. I'd suggest configuring a testing tap like tap-smoke-test in https://docs.meltano.com/cloud/getting_started#new-to-meltano. You can also run
meltano invoke tap-x > output.json
then later run
cat output.json | meltano invoke target-bigquery
to decouple the tap from the target

Thanks Pat, that’s very helpful.
