04/19/2022, 10:09 PMHi @Stéphane Burwash. The process works by comparing the record with the schema, i.e. a property was detected in the record but it was discarded because it's not declared in the stream's schema.
is it possible to leverage it to make tap creation easierI would hope so! What sort of experience did you have in mind?
