I think I've come across the 'using env vars in an array' issue (https://github.com/meltano/meltano/issues/3171) and looking for an alternative solution One thing I've seen suggested is to hard code the value for
{DYNAMICS_PATH}
in
meltano.yml
but then use the
environment
key to toggle between them. I'm fine with that, but is there any way to do that that doesn't require duplicating the
field_names
array in both environments? I have some large spreadsheets with hundreds of columns and would really rather avoid duplicating the list in both
prod
and
dev
envs
