Connector Improvement: Sprout Social Connector Working Without Premium Analytics
Answered
We want to be able to use the Sprout Social Fivetran connector to connect our data to Snowflake without needing the Sprout Social Premium Analytics add-on. Currently, the Sprout Social API works without the add-on, and our team is fine with the data accessible without the add-on. However, our pipeline failed because the pipeline was trying to load datapoints that are only available via Premium Analytics add-on. Maybe if there was a way to deselect these Premium Analytics datapoints from the Schema and allow the connector to continue?

Hi Fivetran team,
We want to be able to access our own Sprout Social data through Fivetran without being required to pay for the Premium Analytics add-on.
Today, the connector requests a predefined set of metrics that includes Premium-only ones. If you don't have the add-on, the sync fails entirely — you can't even access the data your standard plan already includes.
Premium Analytics is an additional annual cost, and for teams that only need standard data (profiles, posts, tags, etc.), paying for it just to keep the connector running is hard to justify.
Please allow the connector to skip or exclude Premium-gated metrics so customers on standard Sprout Social plans can still sync the data they already have access to.
