The following sections explain each of these Alpha features in more detail.

Copy Tracking Plans across workspaces

The RudderStack team is actively working on a number of features that will help you version control Tracking Plans within the context of a full development workflow. In the meantime, we’ve built an basic feature you can use to copy Tracking Plans across workspaces in the RudderStack dashboard.

There are two options for copying a Tracking Plan:

1. Copy as a new Tracking Plan: This will copy the Tracking Plan as a net new Tracking Plan in the target workspace. Any new events and properties will be copied into the the Data Catalog of the target workspace.
2. Copy and replace an existing Tracking Plan: This will replace an existing Tracking Plan and connect the migrated plan to the same sources. The original Tracking Plan will be kept and renamed.

Use Option 2 with caution

This is an alpha feature — the action cannot be rolled back.

Reach out and the team can enable this feature for you.

Kafka source

This feature is available in production.

The Kafka Source enables you to ingest messages from a Kafka stream directly into RudderStack. This can be useful for:

• Applying data governance for behavioral event data.
• Streaming Kafka messages to out-of-the-box cloud integrations.

If you’re interested in streaming data from a system like Kafka, RedPanda, or other messaging queues into RudderStack, reach out to discuss your use case.

You can test this source today — reach out to enable the integration for your workspace and see the Kafka Source documentation for usage and more details.
