You can use the Terraform provider https://registry.terraform.io/providers/airbytehq/airbyte/latest/docs

Reason being I want to update ( dates or access token of source connection) before running sync from airflow. I guess terraform will create the whole connection again. If i am understanding it correctly?

4

You can import the connection into terraform if you don’t want it to be recreated.
