How to define DLT table with cyclic reference

[hadoan]

@Dlt.table
def table_A():
  return (
   dlt.read_stream(...)
  )

@dlt.table
def table_join_A_and_C():
  df_A = dlt.read_stream(table_A)
  df_C = dlt.read_stream(table_C)
  return (
   ....df_A.join(df_C)
  )

@dlt.table
def table_C():
  return (
   dlt.read_stream(table_join_A_and_C).....

  )

I got an error when defining DLT like above. Does DLT support cyclic reference?

Thanks in advance.

Hi @hadoan, It appears that you’re encountering a cyclic reference issue when defining DLT tables. Unfortunately, DLT does not directly support cyclic references. However, you can work around this limitation by restructuring your code. One approach is to break the circular dependency by creating intermediate tables or using alternative logic.
