Request for Transformation Options in Facebook Connector

Summary

User inquires about the possibility of implementing transformation options in the Facebook connector to split array columns into individual rows before loading data into BigQuery.


Question

Hi everyone! I’m new to airbyte. I noticed the facebook connector doesn’t have any transformation options. I’d love to automatically split the actions and action_value columns into a row for each entry in the array. I understand I could do this after the table has been loaded, but wanted to get input on whether it’s possible to do this before the data is originally stored in bigquery.

[{"1d_click":38,"1d_view":270,"28d_click":38,"28d_view":270,"7d_click":38,"7d_view":270,"action_type":"page_engagement","value":273},{"1d_click":38,"1d_view":270,"28d_click":38,"28d_view":270,"7d_click":38,"7d_view":270,"action_type":"post_engagement","value":273},{"1d_click":33,"28d_click":33,"7d_click":33,"action_type":"link_click","value":33},{"1d_click":2,"1d_view":270,"28d_click":2,"28d_view":270,"7d_click":2,"7d_view":270,"action_type":"video_view","value":272}]
