What problem does it solve?
Manually packaging, validating, and deploying Fivetran Connector SDK connectors requires handling configuration encryption, API key setup, Fivetran dashboard navigation, and manual testing, which is time-consuming and prone to human error that can break production connections.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Pre-Deployment Validation: Automatically checks for required connector files, valid schema and update function implementations, and forbidden code patterns to catch issues before deployment.
- Secure Automated Deployment: Handles encrypted configuration values in memory, auto-discovers Fivetran destinations via the REST API, and deploys connectors with a single command, including support for redeploying existing connections.
- Use Case: A developer building a custom marketing data connector can validate their code, run a final local test, and deploy it to their Fivetran account in minutes without manual zip creation or dashboard configuration.
Quick Start
Use the deploy-connector skill to package, validate, and deploy the Fivetran connector in your current project directory to your Fivetran account.
