Begin Fivetran configurationlink

1. In the connector setup form, enter the Destination schema name of your choice.

2. Enter your Folder URL. Make sure your URL looks similar to the one illustrated below and doesn't have any extra characters after the folder ID. The URL specifies the folder path in your Box account in which you'd like Fivetran to look for files. We examine any files under the specified folder, except the nested subfolders, for files we can sync.

   

3. Click Authorize. You will be redirected to your Box account to authorize Fivetran's access.
