Anyone connected to Linked Servers with tap-mssql or python? Giving it a show now, it's looking like I"ll need to alter the tap slightly but maybe there's some easy way to force a "four-part-name"

In the tap layer, I don't think so. However, there may be a way to create a local alias of the four-part name, giving it an also-viable 3-part name. It's been a little while since I've used LinkedServers, tbh.

Hmm I'll look into that, thanks! I was thinking maybe just using DBT would be the easiest solution here
