Hello,

  TimeXtender currently allows to execute only SQL scripts. Script actions can be configured to only call a T-sql statement. however, in a DWH solution, usually scripts are handy for some functions like downloading data in json format from an api using python, or moving csv files from one directory to another directory before considering as a CSV data source for ODX.

If TimeXtender can allow to execute such python and powershell scripts to be configured as an execution step in TimeXtender project, it can help to do end to end process through TimeXtender execution packages.

YES!

For powershell there is already a request https://support.timextender.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/115018657763-Ability-to-include-powershell-script-actions-in-TX

However python and other languages are also good to have.
