Coalesce Copilot

Coalesce Copilot is an AI assistant that accelerates data pipeline development through natural language interaction. Instead of manually configuring nodes through the UI, simply describe your requirements in plain English or paste existing SQL—Copilot translates your intent into working DAG nodes with proper transformations, columns, and relationships. This intelligent assistant empowers teams to:

  • Build and modify nodes through conversational commands.

  • Import existing SQL queries into structured Coalesce pipelines.

  • Execute multi-step workflows from high-level requirements.

  • Receive guidance on best practices and workspace configurations.

By combining the speed of AI-generated scaffolding with the precision of Coalesce's visual interface, Copilot enables both experienced developers and SQL users to build production-ready data transformations faster than ever before.

UI Changes

  • Improved Error Messaging for Timed Out Runs — Run timeout errors now say "Run timed out. Restart the run, and if this issue persists contact support." Run details now show whether you executed the run using the Coalesce App or Coa CLI in the new "Executed By" field.

  • Readable Add Source Popup After Workspace Creation — The popup that appears after creating a Workspace to guide you on adding sources now has improved text contrast. The message is now easy to read against the blue background.

  • Test Failure Indicator in Build Interface — When you run a Node with tests and a test fails with "Continue on Failure" enabled, you'll now see a visual indicator. An orange indicator appears on the Node, and a yellow indicator appears on the failed test child Node. This makes it easier to spot test failures without checking run details.

Mapping Grid

  • Prevent Accidental Empty Columns — The Mapping Grid no longer creates empty "nameless" columns when you click or tab through the grid. Previously, clicking in the grid could accidentally generate blank column rows without names or data types. You now need to take an explicit action to create new columns, reducing confusion and metadata clutter.

Bug Fixes

  • OAuth Token Storage Issue Resolved — Fixed a scenario where OAuth users with Snowflake connections could be blocked due to a secrets storage issue. The system was unconditionally saving Snowflake tokens in V1 format even when the V2 feature flag was enabled, causing payload size limits to be exceeded in Google Secrets Manager when tokens expired and needed to be reset.

  • Full Deploy History Access — Fixed an issue where some users with correct Environment Reader permissions could only view 2-4 recent deploys or runs in the Deploy tab. All users with Environment Reader permissions and above can now see the complete deployment history.

  • Node Descriptions Support for Databricks — Fixed an issue where adding a Node description to an existing Databricks Node would cause deployment failures. You can now add or update descriptions on Databricks Nodes without deployment errors.

  • Duplicate Column Errors — Fixed a scenario where the deployment process could generate ALTER statements to add columns that already existed, causing production deployments to fail. This issue occurred when certain column metadata changes triggered unnecessary ALTER statements.

Databricks

Base Node Types Advanced Deploy Package

  • Version 2.2.0 - Enhanced delete logic for Fact and Dimension nodes with three distinct methods:

    • Hard Delete (permanent removal)

    • Soft Delete (marks records as isSystemCurrentFlag = 0 while retaining history)

    • No Delete (prevents delete operations to maintain existing data flows).

    • Added Primary Key management configuration for seamless altering and dropping of constraints.

    • Added Merge Exclude List for SCD Type 1, allowing specific columns to be excluded from the update phase of MERGE operations.
