Describe the feature
Recently, in an internal discussion we referred to
dbt-redshift
'sauthenticator
config param. We then realized that the param is calledmethod
on that adapter. Let's align the two names by migrating the param with use of a behavior flag to derisk.The work in
dbt-redshift
will be to rename the parameter in the Credentials class and all referencing tests.Describe alternatives you've considered
Leave it as is
Who will this benefit?
In a multi-platform workflow, having a standard configuration nameset leads to a more intuitive (and satisfying) user experience. This PR continues our tend of standardizing name fields across adapters.
Are you interested in contributing this feature?
of course
Anything else?
We will need to consider how this affects Cloud profile generation. It may not. But there's a minor chance it might and we should be conscious of that possibility.
This will require a docs update as well.
