The Trade Desk

info

Status: In development.

  • Source: Supports credential collection only. Login is not validated against The Trade Desk yet, and extraction is not available.
  • Destination (Reverse ETL): Supports credential validation only. Loading/syncing is not available yet.

Overview​

The the_trade_desk connector is currently in development.

  • Use the source to collect a client-provided The Trade Desk login and password while native API extraction is being implemented.
  • Use the destination to validate The Trade Desk destination credentials (API token + advertiser) while destination loading is being implemented.

Authentication​

Source authentication (credential collection only)​

Provide the following:

  • Login (login): The Trade Desk API login.
  • Password (password): The Trade Desk API password.

The user should have access to the The Trade Desk data that will be synced once extraction is enabled. Extract does not send these credentials to The Trade Desk yet.

Destination authentication (Reverse ETL; validation only)​

Provide the following:

  • API token (api_token): The Trade Desk API token used for API requests.
  • Advertiser ID (advertiser_id): The advertiser identifier to validate access against.
  • Region (region): Must be one of US, EU, or APAC.
  • Postback URL (postback_url): Must be an https:// URL.

During destination setup, Extract validates credentials by calling The Trade Desk API for the provided advertiser and verifying the postback URL uses HTTPS.

Source Setup Guide​

Step 1​

Confirm the client has a The Trade Desk user that can be used for API access.

Step 2​

In Extract, create a The Trade Desk source and enter the login and password.

Step 3​

Save the source. The connector does not validate the credentials against The Trade Desk yet.

Destination Setup Guide (Reverse ETL)​

Step 1​

Collect the required destination credentials:

  • API token
  • Advertiser ID
  • Region (US, EU, or APAC)
  • HTTPS postback URL

Step 2​

In Extract, create a The Trade Desk destination and enter the required fields.

Step 3​

Save the destination.

Extract will validate:

  • region is one of US, EU, or APAC
  • the API token can access GET https://api.thetradedesk.com/v3/advertiser/{advertiser_id}
  • postback_url starts with https://

Connection Setup Guide​

Connection setup and stream selection are not available yet for the source, and destination loading is not available yet. Login validation and extraction/loading logic will be added after the relevant The Trade Desk API endpoints are verified and implemented.
