Other: REST API: more details for "Cannot modify read-only table config"

Answered

Please return which tables cannot be modified by a PATCH on https://api.fivetran.com/v1/connectors/{connectorId}/schemas.

I have to manually try each and every one of them and lose a lot of time.

Current:

{"code":"IllegalState","message":"Cannot modify read-only table config"}

Desired:

{"code":"IllegalState","message":"Cannot modify read-only table config: foo, bar, baz"}

    Hey Guillaume, thanks for writing in! It looks like there are a couple things we could do here:

    • Improve the error to specify which tables are read-only
    • Potentially adjust the GET on schemas to return read-only

    Would you use the second option or just the first? Would love to understand this a bit more. 

    Thank you!

    Hi @Jimmy, in my case

    • Better errors would have been helpful.
    • Giving a hint to use GET on schemas to retrieve what's read only would have been helpful
    • Adding an option to ignore read-only tables could be convenient

    Best
