Dataform Javascript Operate Tags

[m-hoss]

I publish a few tables that require "execute immediate" so they're publish via "operations". I do this using the javascript api like so:

```

paramTypes.forEach(paramType => {

operate(paramType, {

hasOutput: true,

tags: ["pivot"],

}).queries(ctx =>

scriptbuilder.event_params_full_refresh.call(ctx,

paramType,

constants.EVENT_PARAMS_COLNAMES.get(paramType)))

});

```

I tried adding the config `{hasOutput: true ,tags: ["pivot"]}` but it seems to be ignored. How can I use the Javascript API "operate" method with tags?

Hi @m-hoss,

While Google documentation does not explicitly mention Operate() with tags, you can try this code and check the following workarounds:

• It seems that you would need another option for tags since Array [ ] need a comparison like tags: [“pivot”, “pivot1”] 
• Add execution tags to your sqlx files
• Trigger execution of SQL workflow

If the workarounds above don’t work, I suggest to file this as a feature request. Please note that I can't provide any details or timelines at this moment. However, you may keep an eye on the Dataform release notes for any latest updates or new features related to Dataform.

I hope the above information is helpful.
