Connector Improvement: Connector SDK feedback
Planned
Hi,
The new Connector SDK connector is amazing and will be able to replace alot of our custom cloud functions! However, to make this A+ we have some feedback:
-
Improvement to deploy mechanism
If the ability to deploy with terraform was available it would be amazing. We have all of our fivetran config in a terraform repository, and this would allow the source code to exist next to the terraform configuration.
-
Improvement to secret handling
This could be solved in many ways.
1. Support for terraform + secrets, would mean you could fetch secret from a secret store (GSM, etc) and input to the connector.
2. Support for being able to pass configuration variables directly to the CLI.
3. Workload Identity enabled runtime, which means you could fetch secret in code via Cloud Provider SDKs.

Hi David,
Thank you so much for sharing your feedback and interest in improving the Connector SDK!
Great news—adding better support for terraform is currently in development. When we are looking for early testers we will reach out
We’re excited to gather feedback and share updates as we continue to refine the Connector SDK. I’ll keep this thread updated with further news as we move closer to a general release!
Thanks again for helping us shape our product.
Best regards,
