Sincronizando dados da conta usando CDI
Aprenda como sincronizar os dados da sua conta Braze usando CDI.
Objetos de conta estão atualmente em beta, o que é necessário para usar este recurso. Entre em contato com seu gerente de conta Braze se estiver interessado em participar da beta.
Pré-requisitos
Antes de sincronizar os dados da sua conta usando CDI, você precisará configurar o esquema das suas contas.
Faça atualizações no esquema da sua conta apenas quando a sincronização estiver pausada ou não programada para evitar conflitos entre os dados do seu armazém de dados e o esquema no Braze.
Como a sincronização funciona
- Cada sincronização importa linhas onde
UPDATED_ATé posterior ao último timestamp sincronizado. - Os dados da integração criam ou atualizam contas com base no
idfornecido. - Se
DELETEDfortrue, a conta é excluída. - A sincronização não registra pontos de dados, mas todos os dados sincronizados contam para o uso total de contas, medido pelo total de dados armazenados—não há necessidade de limitar apenas aos dados alterados.
- Campos que não estão no esquema das suas contas são descartados; atualize o esquema antes de sincronizar novos campos.
Sincronizando os dados da sua conta
Você pode sincronizar os dados da sua conta usando CDI através de um armazém de dados ou um armazenamento de arquivos.
Para integrar sua fonte de dados com seu armazém de dados:
- Crie uma tabela de origem no Snowflake. Use os nomes do exemplo ou escolha seus próprios nomes de banco de dados, esquema e tabela. Você também pode usar uma visão ou visão materializada em vez de uma tabela.

CREATE DATABASE BRAZE_CLOUD_PRODUCTION; CREATE SCHEMA BRAZE_CLOUD_PRODUCTION.INGESTION; CREATE OR REPLACE TABLE BRAZE_CLOUD_PRODUCTION.INGESTION.ACCOUNTS_SYNC ( UPDATED_AT TIMESTAMP_NTZ(9) NOT NULL DEFAULT SYSDATE(), --ID of the account to be created or updated ID VARCHAR(16777216) NOT NULL, --Name of the account to be created or updated NAME VARCHAR(16777216) NOT NULL, --Account fields and values that should be added or updated PAYLOAD VARCHAR(16777216) NOT NULL, --The account associated with this ID should be deleted DELETED BOOLEAN );
- Create a role, warehouse, and user, and grant permissions. If you already have credentials from another sync, you can reuse them—just make sure they have access to the accounts table.

CREATE ROLE BRAZE_INGESTION_ROLE; GRANT USAGE ON DATABASE BRAZE_CLOUD_PRODUCTION TO ROLE BRAZE_INGESTION_ROLE; GRANT USAGE ON SCHEMA BRAZE_CLOUD_PRODUCTION.INGESTION TO ROLE BRAZE_INGESTION_ROLE; GRANT SELECT ON TABLE BRAZE_CLOUD_PRODUCTION.INGESTION.ACCOUNTS_SYNC TO ROLE BRAZE_INGESTION_ROLE; CREATE WAREHOUSE BRAZE_INGESTION_WAREHOUSE; GRANT USAGE ON WAREHOUSE BRAZE_INGESTION_WAREHOUSE TO ROLE BRAZE_INGESTION_ROLE; CREATE USER BRAZE_INGESTION_USER; GRANT ROLE BRAZE_INGESTION_ROLE TO USER BRAZE_INGESTION_USER;
- If you use network policies, allowlist the Braze IPs so the CDI service can connect. For the list of IPs, see Cloud Data Ingestion.
- In the Braze dashboard, go to Data Settings > Cloud Data Ingestion and create a new sync.
- Enter connection details (or reuse existing ones), then add the source table.
- Select the Accounts sync type, then enter the integration name and schedule.
- Choose the sync frequency.
- Add the public key from the dashboard to the user you created. This requires a user with
SECURITYADMINaccess or higher in Snowflake. - Select Test Connection to confirm the setup.
- When you’re finished, save the sync.
- Create a source table in Redshift. Use the names in the example or choose your own database, schema, and table names. You can also use a view or materialized view instead of a table.

-
Create a user and grant permissions. If you already have credentials from another sync, you can reuse them—just make sure they have access to the accounts table.

CREATE USER braze_user PASSWORD '{password}'; GRANT USAGE ON SCHEMA BRAZE_CLOUD_PRODUCTION.INGESTION to braze_user; GRANT SELECT ON TABLE ACCOUNTS_SYNC TO braze_user;
- If you have a firewall or network policies, allow Braze access to your Redshift instance. For the list of IPs, see Cloud Data Ingestion.
- (Optional) Create a new project or dataset for your source table.

CREATE SCHEMA BRAZE-CLOUD-PRODUCTION.INGESTION;
- Create the source table for your CDI integration:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
CREATE TABLE `BRAZE-CLOUD-PRODUCTION.INGESTION.ACCOUNTS_SYNC` ( updated_at TIMESTAMP DEFAULT current_timestamp, id STRING, name STRING, payload JSON, deleted BOOLEAN );
Refer to the following when creating your source table:
Field Name Type Required? UPDATED_ATTimestamp Yes PAYLOADJSON Yes IDString Yes NAMEString Yes DELETEDBoolean Optional
-
Create a user and grant permissions. If you already have credentials from another sync, you can reuse them as long as they have access to the accounts table.
Permission Purpose BigQuery Connection User Allows Braze to connect. BigQuery User Allows Braze to run queries, read metadata, and list tables. BigQuery Data Viewer Allows Braze to view datasets and contents. BigQuery Job User Allows Braze to run jobs. After granting permissions, generate a JSON key. See Keys create and delete for instructions. You’ll upload it in the Braze dashboard later.
- If you use network policies, allow Braze IPs to access your BigQuery instance. For the list of IPs, see Cloud Data Ingestion.
- Create a catalog or schema for your source table.

CREATE SCHEMA BRAZE-CLOUD-PRODUCTION.INGESTION;
- Create the source table for your CDI integration:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
CREATE TABLE `BRAZE-CLOUD-PRODUCTION.INGESTION.ACCOUNTS_SYNC` ( updated_at TIMESTAMP DEFAULT current_timestamp(), id STRING, name STRING, payload STRING, STRUCT, or MAP, deleted BOOLEAN );
Refer to the following when creating your source table:
Field Name Type Required? UPDATED_ATTimestamp Yes PAYLOADString, Struct, or Map Yes IDString Yes NAMEString Yes DELETEDBoolean Optional
- Create a personal access token in Databricks:
- Select your username, then select User Settings.
- On the Access tokens tab, select Generate new token.
- Add a comment to identify the token, such as “Braze CDI”.
- Leave Lifetime (days) blank for no expiration, then select Generate.
- Copy and save the token securely for use in the Braze dashboard.
- If you use network policies, allow Braze IPs to access your Databricks instance. For the list of IPs, see Cloud Data Ingestion.
- Create one or more tables for your CDI integration with these fields:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
CREATE OR ALTER TABLE [warehouse].[schema].[CDI_table_name] ( UPDATED_AT DATETIME2(6) NOT NULL, PAYLOAD VARCHAR NOT NULL, ID VARCHAR NOT NULL, NAME VARCHAR NOT NULL, DELETED BIT ) GO
- Create a service principal and grant permissions. If you already have credentials from another sync, you can reuse them—just make sure they have access to the accounts table.
- If you use network policies, allow Braze IPs to access your Microsoft Fabric instance. For the list of IPs, see Cloud Data Ingestion.
To sync account data from file storage, create a source file with the following fields.
| Field | Required? | Description |
|---|---|---|
ID |
Yes | ID of the Account to update or create |
NAME |
Yes | Name of the Account |
PAYLOAD |
Yes | JSON string of the fields to sync to the account in Braze |
DELETED |
Optional | Boolean indicating to delete the account from Braze |
UPDATED_AT |
*Unsupported | File storage doesn’t support UPDATED_AT columns |
Filenames must follow AWS rules and be unique. Append timestamps to help ensure uniqueness. For more on Amazon S3 syncing, see File Storage Integrations.
The following examples show valid JSON and CSV formats for syncing account data from file storage.

Criando uma visão de sincronização
Criar uma visão de sincronização em seu data warehouse permite que a origem seja atualizada automaticamente sem precisar reescrever consultas adicionais.
Por exemplo, se você tiver uma tabela de dados de conta chamada account_details_1 com account_id, account_name e três atributos adicionais, você poderia criar uma visão de sincronização como a seguinte:
