In 2025-08, Rudder-iac delivered a major feature to streamline model integration and local configuration: a CLI-driven SQL model Import workflow that enables loading remote RETL SQL models into local configuration and supports system-wide imports. This work includes generation of relative SQL file paths, YAML import metadata, and extended provider interfaces and syncer logic to support the Import operation. The result is a more portable, reproducible local dev environment and a scalable pipeline for adding SQL models across environments.
