Connector fails to run after recent airbyte_protocol_models update (AdvancedAuth import error)

[zxqfd555]

Hi,

We have an integration test that uses the latest version of the airbyte-source-file connector. This test runs nightly and started failing today. I was able to reproduce the issue locally with the following steps:

virtualenv venv
. venv/bin/activate
pip install airbyte-source-file
source-file spec

The last command fails with the following traceback:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/sergey/venv/bin/source-file", line 5, in <module>
    from source_file.run import run

From what I can see, the airbyte_protocol_models library was updated less than 24 hours ago. I attempted to downgrade the package from version 0.17.0 (latest) to 0.16.0:

pip uninstall airbyte_protocol_models
pip install airbyte_protocol_models==0.16.0

This resolved the issue — the source-file spec command executed successfully.

Could you please clarify whether this behavior is expected:

• If yes, could you advise on the correct configuration to run the latest versions of this connector?
• If not, could you please investigate and fix the root cause?

Environment details:

Python version: 3.11.12
pip version: 25.1.1

Thanks!
