March 2022

Fivetran Azure UK Servers

We have added new servers in the Azure UK South (uksouth) region.

If you're on a Business Critical plan, you can now select this region in your destination setup form. Connectors configured in a destination run in their designated cloud and region, meaning that your data doesn't leave our region-specific servers during processing. For example, if you configure your connectors to use our servers in UK, your data does not leave UK during processing.

If you're on an Enterprise or Business Critical plan, this is the default region if you choose UK as your data processing location and Azure as your cloud provider.

We now support Azure Private Link connections to sources and destinations in the uksouth region.

For more information, see our data residency documentation.

Height

We have added a new table, TASK_FIELD_USER, that stores information from custom fields with user type.

Jira

We now sync the following ISSUE custom field types:

Rank syncs to your destination as a lexorank algorithm string.
Team syncs to your destination as an integer value. The integer acts a team identifier. We had also added a new table, TEAM, that contains additional team data.

To learn how we sync custom fields for Jira, see our June 2020 release note.

Qualtrics

We have added a new table, DISTRIBUTION_CONTACT.

Improvements

AWS MSK

We have added support for AWS PrivateLink connections to AWS MSK. If you're on a Business Critical plan, you can now opt to connect using AWS PrivateLink. In the connector setup form, select the Connection method as Connect via PrivateLink. For more information, see our setup instructions.

Databricks

We now use Azure Blob Storage as the staging location for our temporary files if:

Your Databricks cluster is hosted on Azure
Your Databricks cluster is a SQL Endpoint cluster
Your Databricks cluster is a general purpose cluster with DBR version 10.2 or greater

Facebook Pages

We have upgraded our Facebook Pages connector from version 12.0 to 13.0 of the Facebook Marketing API. Learn more about the changes in the Facebook Marketing API v13.0 changelog.

Google Ads

We have upgraded our Google Ads connector to version 10 of the Google Ads API. For more information, see Google's v10.0 release note.

Height

The Height connector now supports OAuth authorization.

Instagram Business

We have upgraded our Instagram Business connector from version 12.0 to 13.0 of the Graph API. Learn more about the changes in the Facebook API v13.0 changelog.

Kustomer

We now capture deletes for the TEAM_MEMBER and CONVERSATION_TAG tables.

Mailchimp

We have fixed a bug where we imported the recipient data for each automated email to the AUTOMATION_RECIPIENT table only once, and in the subsequent syncs, we skipped new email recipient data. Now, if we find new email recipient data, we re-import the AUTOMATION_RECIPIENT table in full.

MariaDB

Fivetran Teleport Sync is now available in beta. Learn more in our Fivetran Teleport Sync for MariaDB documentation.

MySQL

Fivetran Teleport Sync is now available in beta. Learn more in our Fivetran Teleport Sync for MySQL documentation.

NetSuite SuiteAnalytics

We have added support for the NetSuite2.com data source. We are gradually rolling out this feature to all our existing users.

You can now create new NetSuite connectors that sync data from the NetSuite2.com data source into your destination.

If your NetSuite account provides access to both data sources, you can sync data from both data sources using a separate connector for each data source. However, we do not support switching data sources for existing NetSuite connections.

Pendo

Pendo processes data at the top of each hour, and it can take up to 15 minutes past the hour for that data to be available. As a result, events data is not immediately available to Fivetran through the API but within 15 minutes past the hour. We have updated our API calls for the VISITOR, EVENT, and POLL_EVENT tables to include a rollback time for the end cursors to fetch the data.

Sage Intacct

We have released pre-built, dbt Core*-compatible data models for Sage Intacct. Find the models in Fivetran's dbt hub. Learn more about our dbt Core integration in our Transformations for dbt Core documentation.

Salesforce

The Salesforce connector no longer supports Live mode. We have migrated the existing connectors on Live mode to Soft Delete mode. You can also use history mode to track the history of your data.

Snowflake

You no longer need to include the word "fivetran" in your Snowflake username.

SurveyMonkey

We have fixed a bug where we didn't sync the following columns to the RECIPIENT table:

mail_status
custom_fields
remove_link
extra_fields
survey_link

To sync these columns for surveys that already have been synced to your destination, trigger a historical sync.
