Creates a data source connection for a Hub transfer. This endpoint establishes a connection between a data source and a destination for use in data warehouse transfers.
Returns: Connection object with connection ID and optional OAuth URLs.
Important Notes:
- Requires scope
dwh_transfers_write - Your account must have
dwh.transfer.editpermission. See roles and permissions. - Connection credentials are encrypted and stored securely
- Some data sources may require OAuth authentication (check
login_urlin response) - The connection must be created before setting up transfers
Bearer token authentication. Include the token in the Authorization header:
Authorization: Bearer <your-token>
ID of the team
Connection configuration specifying data source and destination
{
"data_source_id": "ADM",
"destination_type": "DWH_SNOWFLAKE"
}Data source identifier (e.g., "GA" for Google Analytics, "ADM" for Adobe Analytics Metrics)
Destination type identifier (e.g., "SQL_BQ" for BigQuery, "DWH_SNOWFLAKE" for Snowflake)
API Key for authentication (optional if provided in Authorization header). This is a reserved framework parameter and will be automatically handled.
