The Sprout Social connector syncs your Sprout Social data into Basedash Warehouse, where you can chart it, chat with it, and add it to dashboards like any other data source.
Only admins can add data sources. SaaS connectors run on Fivetran and are available on Basedash Cloud only, not on self-hosted deployments.

​
Connect Sprout Social

  1. Go to the Data page and select Add data source.
  2. Search for Sprout Social and open it.
  3. Select Connect.
  4. In the Fivetran setup form that opens, sign in to Sprout Social or enter the credentials it asks for, then finish the form.
  5. Basedash starts the first sync. When it finishes, the Sprout Social tables appear on the Data page.
The first sync backfills historical data, so it can take longer than later syncs. If you close the setup form before finishing, the connector shows Setup incomplete. Open it from the Data page and select Connect to finish.

​
Manage the sync

Open the connector from the Data page to see its status and synced tables. Admins can change these settings:
  • Enabled: turn off to pause all syncs, and turn back on to resume.
  • Sync frequency: how often Basedash checks Sprout Social for new data, from every 15 minutes to every 24 hours. New connectors sync every hour.
  • Sync now: starts a sync right away.
  • Synced tables: choose which schemas, tables, and columns sync, and use New data to decide what happens when Sprout Social adds new ones. Save your changes to apply them.
  • Access: choose who can see this connector’s tables. See data source access control.
  • Connection details: select Edit to reopen the Fivetran setup form and update credentials or configuration.
To stop syncing and remove the connector, select Delete connector.
