Snap Enhancements

Info
  • Pipelines that are already started before a Snap update will continue to run with the older version of the Snaps. All Pipelines executed after a Snap update run with the new Snaps
  • For Ultra Pipelines, the currently running instances will continue to run with the older Snap packs. Editing and saving the task instance in Manager will cause a rolling restart of the Ultra Pipeline instances and the new Snap Packs will get picked up.
  • Customers using SQL Server with Windows authentication and SAP will need to restart their Groundplexes Groundplex and CloudplexesCloudplex instances.
  • New Snap Packs are displayed in the SnapLogic Designer only after all the JCCs in an org are upgraded to the latest version.

New Snap Pack

SnapLogic Data Science

ML Natural Language Processing Snap Pack:

...

Added documentation on how to deploy Machine Learning models as REST APIs in SnapLogic.

New Snaps in Existing Snap Packs

Salesforce Snap Pack

  • Salesforce Publisher: Publish Salesforce platform event records to a given event custom sObject (Salesforce Object). 
  • Salesforce Subscriber: Subscribe to Salesforce platform event records for a given event custom sObject.

SnapLogic Data Science

ML Core Snap Pack:

  • Auto ML: Automate the process of selecting machine learning algorithms and tuning hyperparameters. This Snap gives the best predictive model within the specified time limit.

ML Data Preparation Snap Pack

Updated Snap Packs

Core

  • Binary Snap Pack:
    • Added a new property, Blob endpoint, which enables you to specify the Azure Blob Storage endpoint that you want to use with an Azure Storage account. 
    • Added a new property, Only Output on Change, in the File Poller Snap. This property helps avoid redundancy by not displaying the same matching file in every polling result, unless the file is changed. 
  • Data Catalog Snap Pack: Added the Catalog Delete Snap to remove tables and table partitions from the Data Catalog. 

Data

  • Hadoop Snap Pack: Added a new property, Output for each file written, to handle multiple binary input data in the HDFS Writer Snap.
  • Snowflake Snap Pack:
    • Added the ability to use SnapLogic to securely connect to and query a Snowflake instance using Azure Blob as its storage layer. See Snowflake Account documentation for details.
    • Added support for snowflake JDBC JAR version 3.6.17. See Snowflake Account documentation for details.
    • Updated the Snowflake Unload, Bulk Load, and Bulk Upsert Snaps to enable SnapLogic users to successfully connect to a Snowflake instance to query, bulk load, and unload data from Azure Blob storage.

Enterprise

  • Netsuite Snap Pack: The Target Schema of the Mapper Snap now displays custom fields by their Display Names in Pipelines that use the NetSuite Create, Update, Upsert, Search, Async Upsert, or Async Search Snaps.

    Note

    Custom fields are not displayed in the updated NetSuite Snaps. They are visible only for Snaps where you have configured custom fields with SnapLogic 4.15 or earlier releases.
    With the updated NetSuite Snaps, you must connect a Mapper Snap as an upstream Snap to map custom fields.


  • Workday Prism Analytics Snap Pack: Updated the name of the Workday Prism Snap Pack to Workday Prism Analytics Snap Pack.

...

  • While authorizing accounts for the Google Spreadsheet Snap Pack, force approval prompts you to request a new refresh token.
  • In the SQL Server Snap Pack, Pipeline execution fails whenever a value is set in the Limit offset property of the SQL Server Select Snap.
  • For a Salesforce Read or SOQL Snap using the REST API, certain network failures while reading a REST response may result in a socket timeout exception that will not retire.
  • For a Salesforce (Platform Events) Subscriber Snap, retry attempts are not logged, and currently retries are attempted only for authentication errors.
