The go-to solution for > these purposes so far was implementing data generators as > {{{}SourceFunctions{}}}. Since {{SourceFunction}} is superseded by FLIP-27 > {{Source}} API and is due to be deprecated, it is required to provide users > with a convenient alternative based on the new API. > -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
