Google plugins for AdWords, Analytics, Drive, and Sheets

We have now released all our Google plugins in the Matatika Community Edition.  Prior to this release, we had no way for users to configure their own custom Google OAuth clients and our community users would have had to use our credentials.  That’s all changed now and users can not only configure their own clients, but they also have all our plugins available and free to use.  Learn more…

Automate ETL from 500+ sources without writing any code

Users of our platform are able to deploy Matatika and Community supported plugins.  Unfortunately, the Community plugin descriptions and configuration are often hard to follow.  This month we have updated more than 500 plugin descriptions and given steps for how to get the required settings.  Full disclosure, we didn’t do this alone, we had the help of LangChain and GPT-3 to generate most of these.  With a few tweaks and edits, they are already proving much better for our users than the short or missing descriptions from the original developers.  Another small step towards providing great support for this plethora of open-source plugins.  Learn more…

 Fixes and upgrades

• Update Google OAuth login implementation due to deprecation of the Google Sign-In JavaScript platform library for Web
• Prevent loading hang when skipping pipeline setup during new workspace onboarding
• Allow pipelines to run by default without an extractor, loader and dbt explicitly (e.g. dbt-only, without custom actions)

Finally, if any of the above has piqued your interest, consider giving us a star on GitHub!
