> @westonpace one doubt is handling multiple names in the provider. Assume we get multiple tables, how should we generate the output? Each call to the function should return a single table. If multiple names are provided then they form a single combined name. I'm not really sure why it is structured that way but I think the idea is a that tablenames are often namespaces, for example `["sales", "orders"]` is a single table `sales.orders` and not two different tables. A provider function is free to know about as many tables as it wants but it can only return one table each call. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
