How to Set a Time For Your Daily Syncs

You can choose what time your daily syncs start if you don’t want to use Fivetran’s default midnight starting time.

For example, let's say we want to set a 03:00 starting time for connector connector_id_1.

There are two ways to set a 03:00 starting time:

• Make sure that connector_id_1 already has its sync frequency set to 1440 (expressed in minutes, which makes 24 hours) and send the following request:

PATCH https://api.fivetran.com/v1/connectors/connector_id_1

{   
  "daily_sync_time": "03:00"
}

• Set both the sync_frequency and daily_sync_time parameters in one request:

PATCH https://api.fivetran.com/v1/connectors/connector_id_1

{
  "sync_frequency": 1440,
  "daily_sync_time": "03:00"
}
