Sailthru Setup Guide

Follow our setup guide to connect Sailthru to Fivetran.

Prerequisites

Before getting started, you need:

• A Sailthru account

• (Optional) A Sailthru Connect connection with Event Stream enabled.

  NOTE: To set up your S3 bucket policy, see Sailthru's documentation.

Setup instructions

Find API key and secret key

1. Log in to your Sailthru account.

2. Go to Settings > My Info > Setup > API & Postbacks.

   

3. Click on the lock icon to show your API key and secret key.

4. Make a note of your API key and secret key. You will need them to configure Fivetran.

   

Safelist Fivetran's IPs

NOTE: If you do not restrict any IPs (that is, your Allowed IPs field is empty), you can skip this step.

1. Close the API Key & Secret modal to return to API & Postbacks.

2. Go to the Allowed IPs text entry field.

   IMPORTANT: An empty Allowed IPs field means IP restriction has not been enabled, and Sailthru is open to the world. If you change your setting from empty to listing only Fivetran's IPs, that will block access to services other than Fivetran.

3. Add Fivetran's IPs to the list of allowed IPs.

Begin Fivetran configuration

1. In the connector setup form, enter your chosen Destination schema name.
2. Enter the Sailthru API Key and Secret Key you found.
3. (Optional) In the Historical Sync Time Frame drop-down menu, select the range of historical data you want to include in your initial sync.
4. (Optional) To sync Sailthru Connect data, set the Enable this if you want to sync Sailthru Connect toggle to ON and make a note the External ID. You will need it to set up Sailthru Connect.

(Optional) Set up Sailthru Connect

Create IAM policy

1. Log in to the Amazon IAM console.

2. On the navigation menu, click Policies.

3. In the Policies page, click Create policy.

         ],
         "Resource": "arn:aws:s3:::{your-bucket-name}/*"
       },
       {
         "Effect": "Allow",
         "Action": [

         ],
         "Resource": "arn:aws:s3:::{your-bucket-name}"
       }
     ]
