Release Notes

June 2026

We have added the TIME_BOUND_VIDEO_ANALYTICS table which provides video performance metrics for video posts.

April 2026

We've implemented a new mechanism to fetch source schema quicker when creating a new connection. Now, instead of deriving the schema from source data, we use fixed schema models. This allows you to see the schema blocking and hashing screen almost immediately after creating a new connection.

As a result of this improvement, you may see empty tables and columns in the Schema tab of existing connections that have not yet synced to your destination.

After optimizing schema fetch for the connectors below, these connections no longer use the pre-initial-sync schema capture flow described in schema_status.

Affected connectors

REST API request changes (breaking)

For the connectors listed above, the schema_status request field is no longer supported in:

Update a Connection

If your automation still sends schema_status for these connectors, requests may fail.

REST API response changes

For the connectors listed above, schema_status is no longer returned for flows that previously exposed it, including:

If your downstream transformations or orchestration rely on this field, update them to handle its absence.

Dashboard flow change

In the Fivetran dashboard, these connectors no longer show the schema prefetch and review step before initial sync. After connection creation, you proceed directly to the initial sync flow.

October 2025

We unified each connector’s pre-built dbt Core–compatible data models into a single model. It standardizes and documents the Fivetran schemas created in your destination and outputs analytics-ready tables. Previously, most connectors used distinct source and transform models.

July 2024

LinkedIn has deprecated the following tables:

PAGE_STATISTIC_BY_REGION - replaced by PAGE_STATISTIC_BY_GEO
PAGE_STATISTIC_BY_COUNTRY - replaced by PAGE_STATISTIC_BY_GEO_COUNTRY

January 2023

We have migrated from the Industries API to the new Industry Taxonomy Versions API.

Our LinkedIn Company Pages connector is now generally available. Read our LinkedIn Company Pages connector documentation.

We have released pre-built, dbt Core-compatible data models for LinkedIn Company Pages. Find the model in Fivetran's dbt hub. Learn more about our dbt Core integration in our Transformations for dbt Core documentation.
