I hope this is the right place for this question. If I have a custom tap that I need to create a separate instance of with different credentials can I use
inherit-from
and specify a second set of credentials in an .env file and specify them in the .yml file? Or do I have to do a separate instance of it in some other way. I have used
inherit-from
before, but it has always been in cases where the same credentials worked for both. Thanks!

Yes, you would just specify a different set of environment variable for the inherited plugin. That should work!

Great thanks Taylor, I will try it out.

Also checkout the new environments feature because you can do something similar with it https://meltano.com/docs/environments.html
just depends on how you want to deploy
