Prerequisites

To connect Brightcove to Fivetran, you need a Brightcove account with Adminsitrator role and API access.

NOTE: Contact Brightcove's support team for API access.

Log in to your Brightcove account.
In the top right corner of the page, click your profile icon and make a note of your account ID. You will need it to configure Fivetran.

Go to the Admin module.
Click API Authentication.
On the API Authentication page, click + Add application.
Enter a Name and Description for the client registration.
Select one or more of your accounts for authorization.
In the Exposed Brightcove APIs section, select the following checkboxes:
- Read checkbox under Analytics

Click Save.
Make a note of the Client ID and Client Secret. You will need them to configure Fivetran.

In the connector setup form, enter the Destination schema name of your choice.
Enter the Account ID you found in Step 1.
Enter the Client ID and Client secret you found in Step 2.
(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 Brightcove data.
