Wrangler is an interactive tool that lets you perform transformations on a subset of your data. It allows you to apply directives and create recipes using UI or JEXL commands. This plugin applies data transformation directives on your data records. The directives are generated either through an interactive user interface or by manual entry into the plugin.

BigQuery ELT Pushdown for Preconditions (6.9.0+)

The Precondition step of a Wrangler stage in a pipeline is now eligible to execute in BigQuery when BigQuery ELT Transformation Pushdown is enabled in a pipeline. This is only supported when the Precondition Language is set to SQL.
