Hi everyone, wanted to stop by and say I love the work being done with Meltano! Currently testing things out for our company and mostly smooth sailing so far. Quick question: is there documentation around running the same tap for different profiles? We are a startup but we have two brands and hence two of a lot of our services.
I saw some of the issue conversations about pushing this into the backlog, but seems like there might be a workaround with schedule vars?

I’d recommend running meltano in a docker container and passing in the config as env vars! That’s what we do and we can have as many different config’s as we please and can just inject the config in at runtime.
e.g. set the env var
TAP_SHOPIFY_API_KEY

Ah very cool, thank you, Paul! Do you pipe everything into a common database? (I'm guessing there's a way to override the schema name for a tap)
Ignore my question, I see the answer in the docs. Thank you again!

@tyler_martin Right now, your best bet is to use env vars as documented in https://meltano.com/docs/integration.html#pipeline-specific-configuration, but as you found, native profile support (https://gitlab.com/groups/meltano/-/epics/51) is on the horizon 🙂
