"CSDK" is shorthand for "Connector SDK". # Deploy Fivetran Connector **FIRST**: Read `sdk-reference.md` from the plugin directory to load SDK rules and patterns. Package and deploy the connector in the current directory. ## Step 1: Pre-Deployment Validation Verify the connector is ready: 1. **Files exist**: `connector.py`, `configuration.json`, `requirements.txt`, `README.md` 2. **Code quality**: Read `connector.py` and check for: - Both `schema()` and `update()` functions present - `connector = Connector(update=update, schema=schema)` in global scope - `if __name__ == "__main__": connector.debug()` entry point - No forbidden patterns (`Dict[str, Any]`, `Generator[op.Operation, ...]`, `op.Operation` in type hints) 3. **Configuration**: `configuration.json` is JSON with a top-level `encrypted` field containing encrypted credential values. Legacy files that start with `ENCRYPTED:` are also acceptable. If credentials are not encrypted, stop and tell the user to enter credentials through `tools/enter_configuration.py` in a separate terminal. Do not read, print, copy, or deploy plaintext credential values. ## Step 2: Run Final Test Use the secure runner: ```bash python <plugin>/tools/run_connector.py <connector_directory> ``` If the test fails, classify the error (INFRA / FIRST_RUN / CODE) and — for CODE errors — apply the fixer workflow (see `workflows/fixer.md` in the plugin, or — in plugins that support subagents — invoke the `connector-fixer` subagent). ## Step 3: Deploy The deploy tool auto-discovers the destination via the Fivetran REST API — you only need to run: ```bash python <plugin>/tools/deploy_connector.py <connector_directory> ``` The tool: 1. Reads `FIVETRAN_API_KEY` from the environment. 2. Calls `GET /v1/groups` and `GET /v1/groups/{id}/destinations` to discover the user's groups and destinations. 3. Picks the single group/destination automatically, or prompts the user to choose if more than one exists. 4. Invokes `fivetran deploy` with the chosen destination and the encrypted configuration (passed via named pipe, never written to disk). If `deploy_connector.py` exits with "configuration.json is not encrypted", do not continue deployment. Direct the user to run: macOS/Linux: ```bash cd "<connector_directory>" python "<plugin>/tools/enter_configuration.py" "configuration.json" ``` Windows PowerShell: ```powershell cd "<connector_directory>" python "<plugin>/tools/enter_configuration.py" "configuration.json" ``` Then re-run deploy after the user confirms the file is encrypted. If the local encryption secret file does not exist yet, `enter_configuration.py` creates it before encrypting `configuration.json`. ### Prerequisite: `FIVETRAN_API_KEY` If the user hasn't set the env var, the tool exits with a clear message. Direct the user to: 1. Create a Fivetran API key at https://fivetran.com/dashboard/user/api-config with `CONNECTOR:READ` permission (and `DESTINATION:READ` so destination lookup works). 2. Add it to their shell config. macOS/Linux: ```bash export FIVETRAN_API_KEY=... ``` Windows PowerShell: ```powershell setx FIVETRAN_API_KEY "..." ``` 3. Reload their shell and re-run the deploy command. ### If no destinations exist If the user has zero destinations, the tool exits with a link to the destinations page. Direct the user to create one in the dashboard (requires warehouse credentials) and re-run deploy.

Build the deployable archive: ```bash fivetran package ``` This produces a ZIP containing `connector.py`, `configuration.json`, `requirements.txt` (or `pyproject.toml`), `README.md`, and any additional source files, respecting `.gitignore`. 2. Upload via the Fivetran dashboard.
