Connector Improvement: API: new endpoint to list connectors

Answered

Currently, there doesn’t seem to be an API to list of connector IDs. this defeats the purpose of the API. As all other APIs expect connector ID which currently cannot be retrieved via API.

    Hey Gaurish! Thanks for the suggestion. I think in a lot of cases people are usually working with the connector ID at the time of creation, and often storing it in a table on their side, so we haven't seen a lot of requests around an endpoint like this. Could you list out your workflow/use-case a bit more so I can understand how you'd use this? Would you want to be able to list out all connectors and their attributes?

    I am looking for an API to list the connectors so that I can periodically review the active connectors to ensure its par with my database, as support folks have access to fivetran dashboard where we can pause the connector.

    Hi, I would also find this feature useful. There are several people in different parts of our organization that set up Fivetran connections. We'd like to centrally manage database connections for the synced data.

    Being able to query Fivetran for the list of connectors will enable us to know when new connectors have been added.

    Further, if we can then query the new connectors for information we'll be able to better flag new database tables, etc that need to have permissions set, or perhaps even automate the process.
