Akamai Setup Guide Lite

Follow our setup guide to connect Akamai to Fivetran.

Prerequisites

To connect Akamai to Fivetran, you need an Akamai account with:

API access
Type name (database where the user profile is stored)
Janrain Capture domain name

TIP: Contact Akamai Support for Janrain Capture domain name.

Setup instructions

Find hostname

Find your hostname in your Janrain URL and make a note of it. You will need it to configure Fivetran. For example, https://{registrationDomain}.janraincapture.com/

TIP: To find the registration domain in your hostname, see Akamai's documentation.

Get client credentials

Log in to your Akamai account.
In Akamai Console, select Manage Properties.
Select Credentials.
Make a note of your Client Id and Secret. You will need them to configure Fivetran.

NOTE: To execute API calls, enable direct read access permissions for the API client.

Finish Fivetran configuration

In the connector setup form, enter the Destination schema name of your choice.
Enter the Hostname that you found.
Enter your Type name.
NOTE: You can enter multiple type names as comma-separated values.
Enter the Client ID and Client secret you found.
(Hybrid Deployment only) If your destination is configured for Hybrid Deployment, the Hybrid Deployment Agent associated with your destination is pre-selected in the Select an existing agent drop-down menu. To use a different agent, select the agent of your choice, and then select the same agent for your destination.
Click Save & Test. Fivetran will take it from here and sync your Akamai data.
