 ## Fixes
 * Handle booleans gracefully in the unpivot macro ([#305](https://github.com/fishtown-analytics/dbt-utils/pull/305) [@avishalom](https://github.com/avishalom))
+* Fix a bug in `get_relation_by_prefix` that happens with Snowflake external tables. Now the macro will retrieve tables that match the prefix which are external tables ([#350](https://github.com/fishtown-analytics/dbt-utils/issues/350))
