Question regarding the 
--select
CLI option.. is it possible or will it be possible to set this in the GUI/scheduled runs? I have a setup where.. I have the same tap but the different streams need to be run at different cadences.. and want to 
--select
a different entity/stream for each pipeline https://docs.meltano.com/reference/command-line-interface#parameters-1
when i try to set it at the tap level it seems ignored ie
e
the env vars should still work fwiw, e.g. 
TAP_IBKR_NEWS__SELECT='["ib_news.*"]'
e
Gracias Edgar, I will give that a go in a bit and hope it works
I am reading I set this in the root of the meltano project inside a 
.env
, correct?

@emcp yeah, 
.env
should work. Depending on how you’re running meltano, you could also export the env var just for the command context:
Copy code
TAP_IBKR_NEWS__SELECT='["ib_news.*"]' meltano run ...

hmm I am running via solely the GUI
but not seeing it skip unselected streams
I will keep trying.. I wonder though if this is something more i need to code in the TAP itself
e
hmm I am running via solely the GUI
Oh I see. I misunderstood and thought you were using 
meltano run
🤦‍♂️. Yeah, there’s no support for that in the UI at the moment
