Transferring data using Management API#
The Management API enables you to programmatically manage destinations, configure storage entries, and control how data flows from your datastreams to external tools. This section explains how to create, configure, and manage data transfers using API endpoints.
Why use Management API for data transfer?#
Programmatic data transfer management enables you to:
Control data flow to external systems
Maintain consistent loading configurations
Scale your data distribution efficiently
Automate destination setup
Core concepts#
- What is a destination?
An external destination is an external tool (e.g. Looker Studio) into which you can load the data you have collected in Adverity.
- What is a storage?
A storage entry is a connection to an external object store (such as Google Cloud Storage or Amazon S3) that Adverity uses to stage data extracts before loading them into a destination. They appear under Settings → Storage in Adverity.
