Fivetrex.Models.Column (Fivetrex v0.2.1)

Represents a column within a table configuration.

Columns are the individual fields being synced from source to destination. Each column can be independently enabled/disabled or hashed for privacy.

Fields

:name_in_destination - The name used in the destination warehouse
:enabled - Whether this column is being synced
:hashed - Whether the column value is hashed for privacy (useful for PII like emails)
:is_primary_key - Whether this column is part of the primary key
:type - The Fivetran source data type (e.g., "STRING", "INTEGER", "TIMESTAMP", "FLOAT", "BOOLEAN", "DATE", etc.)
:enabled_patch_settings - Advanced patch settings

Privacy Hashing

When :hashed is true, Fivetran applies a one-way hash to column values. This is useful for:

Removing personally identifiable information (PII)
Maintaining referential integrity while anonymizing data
Compliance with privacy regulations (GDPR, CCPA)

Examples

# Find primary key columns
primary_keys =
  columns
  |> Enum.filter(fn {_name, col} -> col.is_primary_key end)
  |> Enum.map(fn {name, _col} -> name end)

# Find hashed (anonymized) columns
hashed_columns =
  columns
  |> Enum.filter(fn {_name, col} -> col.hashed end)
  |> Enum.map(fn {name, _col} -> name end)
