Braze

This connector captures data from Braze into Estuary collections.

This connector is based on an open-source connector from a third party, with modifications for performance in the Estuary system.

Supported data resources

The following data resources are supported through the Braze APIs:

• campaigns
• campaigns_analytics
• canvases
• canvases_analytics
• events
• events_analytics
• kpi_daily_new_users
• kpi_daily_active_users
• kpi_daily_app_uninstalls
• cards
• cards_analytics
• segments
• segments_analytics

By default, each resource is mapped to an Estuary collection through a separate binding.

Prerequisites

It is required to have an account on Braze to provide us with URL and Rest API Key during set up.

• Rest API Key could be found on Braze Dashboard -> Developer Console tab -> API Settings -> Rest API Keys
• URL could be found on Braze Dashboard -> Manage Settings -> Settings tab -> Your App name -> SDK Endpoint

You configure connectors either in the Estuary web app, or by directly editing the catalog specification file. See connectors to learn more about using connectors. The values and specification sample below provide configuration details specific to the Braze source connector.
