Aug 21 Product Updates: Timeplus Provider for Terraform, SQL Editor auto-expand, and Add Data pop-up
This week, as an experimental update, we published a developer preview of Timeplus Provider for Terraform. With a Timeplus workspace ID and API Key, you can use this tool to create, update, or delete resources in Timeplus, including sources, streams, views, materialized views, and sinks. More resources will be supported in the future, such as UDFs and dashboards.
You can put the Terraform files in a version control system and apply branching, code review, and CICD. Compared to SQL-based batch operation, this tool can easily manage dependencies among various resources and allow you to preview what will be changed before updating the deployment.
Here's what else is new in Timeplus Cloud:
⬇️ SQL editor auto-expand
⌨️ Keyboard shortcuts for streaming table row details
➕ Add Data pop-up shows sources
🔀 Data Lineage page remembers tile positions
🗑️ Delete confirmation for API keys
Query and Results:
On the Query page, we've enhanced the SQL editor to better support multi-line SQL. The editor will now auto-expand as you type.
When viewing row details in the results table, press the up or down arrows on your keyboard to see details for the previous or next row.

Console UI:
On the Data Ingestion page, the Add Data pop-up now shows sources directly (such as Apache Kafka, Confluent Cloud, Redpanda etc.).
On the Data Lineages page, if you move the tiles around, we will remember their positions and show them in the same positions the next time you visit this page. To return to default positions, click the Reset Layout button in the top right corner.
When you delete an API key, we will now show a pop-up to confirm the deletion.
