Hello, is it possible to cast a field extracted as
VARCHAR
from
tap-oracle
to be loaded as a
CLOB
in
target-oracle
, using Meltano? If so, what’s the correct way to do it? Through stream_maps, dbt? Or another method? I'm using the
s7clarke10
tap-oracle fork and hitting issues trying to get large text fields (like
photo
) into
CLOB
format. Any suggestions would be much appreciated!

The first thing to determine is whether
target-oracle
can actually create
CLOB
columns. Which variant are you using?

Hi Edgar thanks for your help in this issue, I'm using the radbrt variant. Its not necessary that it needs to be a
CLOB
but I need to transform the column somehow because the
VARCHAR
field was unbound and the target could not bring the field in because of that
