In Case 2 & 3 mentioned above, the extra properties added in getTable, https://github.com/apache/iceberg/blob/52bfbdc0b03bafb610efde8486a6633be2b9cc4f/flink/v1.20/flink/src/main/java/org/apache/iceberg/flink/FlinkCatalog.java#L339-L344 will be added as Table properties in destination table. Looking into nicer ways to avoid that. An option can be to add an extraProperty like say , createtabletype -> like in getTable , which can be used to differentiate the way table is being created. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
