Is there a tap that works with CSV over HTTPS?
tap-spreadsheets-anywhere
says it works with HTTPS, but it doesn’t look like it actually supports that protocol.

@andrew_stewart https://github.com/ets/tap-spreadsheets-anywhere uses https://github.com/RaRe-Technologies/smart_open, which supports HTTPS, but I'm not sure how you're expected to configure
path
,
name
and
pattern
to make that work. @eric_simmerman Do you know?

Just FYI, we’re working on this over at https://github.com/ets/tap-spreadsheets-anywhere/issues/2
Working on a PR to add http/https support.

Just seeing this but Andrew and I corresponded over tickets on this one and made a commit that provides support for http/s now. Since we can’t reliably list files under a URL path - the named config block combination of path and pattern has to point to single target. Other than that - the protocol is supported like all the others.

That was a nice little foray for me into the basics of singer taps. I have some other ideas I could contribute, depending how much functionality you think is appropriate to pack into this single tap.
Mostly related to schema overrides due to working with some pesky xlsx formats.
