Breaking Changes
Source Package Consolidation
- Removed the dependency on the
fivetran/lever_sourcepackage.- All functionality from the source package has been merged into this transformation package for improved maintainability and clarity.
- If you reference
fivetran/lever_sourcein yourpackages.yml, you must remove this dependency to avoid conflicts. - Any source overrides referencing the
fivetran/lever_sourcepackage will also need to be removed or updated to reference this package. - Update any lever_source-scoped variables to be scoped to only under this package. See the README for how to configure the build schema of staging models.
- As part of the consolidation, vars are no longer used to reference staging models, and only sources are represented by vars. Staging models are now referenced directly with
ref()in downstream models.
dbt Fusion Compatibility Updates
- Updated package to maintain compatibility with dbt-core versions both before and after v1.10.6, which introduced a breaking change to multi-argument test syntax (e.g.,
unique_combination_of_columns). - Temporarily removed unsupported tests to avoid errors and ensure smoother upgrades across different dbt-core versions. These tests will be reintroduced once a safe migration path is available.
- Removed all
dbt_utils.unique_combination_of_columnstests. - Moved
loaded_at_field: _fivetran_syncedunder theconfig:block insrc_lever.yml.
- Removed all
Under the Hood
