New updates and product improvements

Q1 2026
Destinations

You can now export data as Iceberg tables with AWS Glue, AWS S3, and Iceberg REST catalog support.

Q4 2025
Connection Modalities

You can now authenticate to Databricks with OAuth.

Product

In-flight transfers now publish model completion status during each transfer to both the Transfer endpoint and transfer details page in the Admin UI.

Product

The following enhancements have been made in the Admin UI:

  • The recipients page now features a destinations tab to easily identify and navigate between recipients and destinations.
  • You can now retry a transfer directly from the transfer details page.
  • The static egress IP for each deployment is now displayed on the add destination and create magic link pages.
  • Source queries are now displayed on each Model page, when one exists.
Performance

Resiliency of clean up for temporary artifacts created in sources and destinations during transfers has been improved.

Q3 2025
Destinations

You can now write Delta Tables to any major object storage destination.

Connection Modalities

You can now easily rotate keys on Snowflake and other key-pair enabled connections.

Performance

Advanced users on Enterprise plans can now tune specific worker sizes to enable higher performance on extra large workloads.

Performance

Transfer artifact cleanup performance in destinations has been improved.

Transfers

Support for Automatic Liquid Clustering on Databricks destinations has been added as the default clustering strategy when enabled on a customer’s workspace.

Q2 2025
Performance

You can now specify models as append-only where applicable for improved transfer efficiency. This enables more performant destination loading by reducing data scanned on merges across every destination type.

Performance

You can now configure partitions on specific model types. This enables more efficient queries on both writing jobs and downstream workloads where query patterns are predictable.

Transfers

You can now attach arbitrary tags in the form of key-value pairs to transfers. For more information, see the API reference.

Notifications

You can now configure native Datadog webhooks for Prequel events from the Admin UI.

Transfers

Enterprise customers now have the option to disable the Prequel scheduler for custom transfer orchestration workflows.

Q1 2025
Destinations

You can now send data to MotherDuck data lakes.

Destinations

You can now send data to MongoDB databases.

Error Codes

Prequel now redacts sensitive traces from driver outputs, rendering clean error messages and a blame attribute to guide resolution. For more information, see Error Codes.

Product

You can now programmatically generate SSH keys scoped to a given recipient.

Transfers

You can now trigger transfers in debug mode for more detailed logging for a single transfer when debugging an error.

Q4 2024
Product

You can now validate data integrity between your source and destination. This feature will probabilistically verify the integrity of the data by comparing source and destination rows.

Transfers

You can now utilize windowed transfers to "checkpoint" through larger transfers. This feature is particularly useful for high volume destinations where working through the transfer in "chunks" can unlock value earlier for the data recipient, or offer a indication of progress at transfer time.

Notifications

Webhook events are now available for successful and cancelled transfers.

Product

You can now receive exports of Prequel usage data directly to any database or warehouse supported by Prequel.

Q3 2024
Destinations

You can now export data to Azure Blob Storage.

Notifications

You can now add and manage webhooks directly in the Prequel Admin UI.

Q2 2024
Error Codes

You can now resolve transfer errors faster with contextual error codes.

Destinations

You can now incorporate Databricks’ Unity Catalog functionality when you send data to Databricks destinations.

Q1 2024
React SDK

We have made a number of updates to the React SDK including:

  • Third-party identification is now standardized using recipient_id.
  • useDestinationForm now accepts an options parameter that allows you to set any number of the optional parameters without worrying about parameter order.
  • useDestinationVendors now returns a list of all available destination vendors for the deployment, complete with display names and logos.
  • useGetTransfers now returns a list of Transfer objects rather than the full API response object.
  • useModelConfigs has been deprecated in favor of useModels, with updated return types.
  • FetchAuthTokenWithDestination has been renamed to FetchAuthTokenWithPreparedDestination
  • FormField type has been expanded to include div form elements and number input types.
  • useDestination hook now supports Partial inputs so you don't need to wrap setDestination in setDestinationField as suggested in the React Example app.
Destinations

You can now send data to SFTP.

H2 2023
Destinations

You can now send data to Azure Blob Storage, Cloudflare R2, SQL Server, and Google Sheets.

Transfers

You can now sync and refresh on a per-destination basis.

Transfers

You can now split large transfers into smaller chunks.

Transfers

You can now write optimized source queries to reduce costs.

H1 2023
Connection Modalities

You can now connect to a source or destination using Role-based access control (RBAC).

Sources
Product

You can now assign multiple products to a single destination.

Notifications

You can now use webhooks to send notifications to Slack, PagerDuty, and more.
