2026-09-18 - INTEGER Recognised as a Valid Tap Config Data Type
=================================================================================

Release
==================
AgileData.io - More Flexible Collectors: INTEGER Now Accepted in Tap Configuration

When configuring a tap collector, you can specify the data type for each field in your source schema. Previously, ``INTEGER`` was not recognised as a valid type option, which could cause validation errors when your source system used this type explicitly. AgileData now accepts ``INTEGER`` alongside the other supported numeric types.

**What's New:**

* ``INTEGER`` added as a valid data type option in tap configuration

**What this means for you:**

* Configure collectors against sources that return ``INTEGER``-typed fields without workarounds
* Fewer validation errors when setting up new taps
