hey, i’m having some trouble using the
--exclude
option to select entities. i’m using this tap for facebook pages and wanted to exclude the
page_insight_video_ad_break
and
post_insight_video_ad_break
streams but include everything else. the selector in my meltano.yml looks like this:
Copy code
select:
  - '!post_insight_video_ad_break.*'
  - '!page_insight_video_ad_break.*'
but that appears to be excluding all entities. output of
meltano select tap-facebook-pages --list --all

You need to also select *, and the excludes will exclude those that you don't want

ahh okay did not realize that, thank you! i assumed it would exclude from whatever the default is if i have no selection rules
