How Can I Ensure Connectors Created On Behalf of My End-Users Are Identifiable?

Question

How can I ensure connectors created on behalf of my end-users are identifiable?

Environment

REST API

Answer

Use a connector naming policy that maintains clear differentiation by customers in a destination. Follow a naming pattern such as {customer_name}_connector_type.

For example, imagine you created a Salesforce connector for your end-user, customer_name = apple. Using this naming policy, you'd name the connector apple-salesforce. This name would appear in the Fivetran dashboard and as the schema name in the destination.
