Fivetran

The Fivetran Action relies upon access to Fivetran's API endpoint. This endpoint is configurable if you have a non-standard implementation but should generally be left alone.

Authentication with their services will require an API key and secret but you can find more documentation about generating these values here (opens in a new tab).

Fields

FieldRequiredDefaultDescription
fivetran-endpointnohttps://api.fivetran.com/v1 (opens in a new tab)Fivetran API endpoint
fivetran-api-keyyesYour Fivetran user api key
fivetran-api-secretyesYour Fivetran user api secret
namespace-mapnoA JSON string containing a mapping between Fivetran connections and Grai namespaces

The namespace field in the Fivetran Action works slightly differently than other action. It is used as a default namespace for all connections not specified in the namespace_map. You can find more information about that below.

Namespace Map

Each Fivetran connection has a connector id and synchronizes from a source to a sync. For example, a sync from your production database to data warehouse would have an associated connector id.

Because the Fivetran Action synchronizes from all of your Fivetran connections it uses the namespace_map value to know which connectors belong to which Grai namespaces. The namespace map should be a JSON string with the Grai namespace for each source and destination of each connector id e.g.

{
    "<connector_id>": {
        "source": "<source_namespace>",
        "destination", "<destination_namespace>"
    }
}

You can find connector id's for all of your Fivetran connections in the API (opens in a new tab)
