Customer triggered table re-syncs
You can now trigger re-syncs of individual tables from your Fivetran dashboard:
The re-sync button appears when you hover your cursor over the row that contains the table name.
This feature is available for the following connectors:
- Amazon DynamoDB
- MongoDB
- MySQL
- NetSuite SuiteAnalytics
- Oracle
- PostgreSQL
- Salesforce
- SQL Server
- Zuora
TLS certificate verification changes
You are no longer able to configure self-signed certificates for destination connectors. We plan to release new UI tools in the coming weeks to empower security teams to register and pin certificate authorities with Fivetran.

value in the Bing Ads API response:
PRODUCT_DIMENSION_PERFORMANCE_HOURLY_REPORT
PRODUCT_DIMENSION_PERFORMANCE_DAILY_REPORT
PRODUCT_DIMENSION_IMPRESSION_PERFORMANCE_HOURLY_REPORT
PRODUCT_DIMENSION_IMPRESSION_PERFORMANCE_DAILY_REPORT
This change affects version 1 and version 2 of the Bing Ads API.

, to the JOURNEY
table.

from all table names.
Taboola
We have designated _fivetran_id
as the only primary key in all REPORT
tables to account for null values in other fields.

We have dropped the deleted
column from the GROUP
table.
Improvements
AWS CloudWatch
You can now have a space in your log group name without causing problems in your Fivetran dashboard.
Help Scout
We have increased the Help Scout API rate limit, allowing us to easily retry our API connections when failures occur.
Intercom
We have released a new version of the Intercom connector, now with an improved schema. You can find additional information in our Intercom documentation.
Thanks to leveraging Intercom webhooks, we now support the delete
function in the following tables:
USER_HISTORY
LEAD_HISTORY
ADMIN
TEAM
SEGMENT_HISTORY
TAG
Jira
We have added support for OAuth, as Jira is deprecating basic authentication with password.
Microsoft Advertising
We have released version 2 of the Microsoft Advertising connector, which allows you to fetch HOURLY
reports.
MySQL
We have identified and fixed an extremely rare bug that can cause data to be missed during binary log replication. The bug meant that, in some cases, our system believed that all data had been successfully synced, when the binary log replication process had actually stopped prematurely.
NetSuite SuiteAnalytics
We have fixed the incremental update of child tables. All child tables of child tables will also be updated recursively. For example, if the TRANSACTIONS
table is updated, then its child table TRANSACTION_LINES
will be updated, along with TRANSACTION_LINES
's own child tables BIN_NUMBER
and BIN_NUMBER_COUNTS
.
ServiceNow
The ServiceNow connector can now sync tables which do not have sys_updated_on
or sys_created_on
columns.
Taboola
We have improved the Taboola connector's capacity to support very large data files.
Webhooks
We have added GZIP support for Webhook API requests.
