You must configure a connected app for your developer to send data into Data Cloud using Ingestion API. Align with your developer on connected app set up and the OAuth flow being used to connect to Ingestion API.

Edition Table
Available in: All Editions supported by Data Cloud. See Data Cloud edition availability.

As part of your Connected App set up for Ingestion API, you must select the following OAuth scope:

  • Access and manage your Data Cloud Ingestion API data (cdp_ingest_api)
  • Access and manage your data (api)
  • Perform requests on your behalf at any time (refresh_token, offline_access)

Refer to the links in the see also section to know more on configuring a connected app and OAuth flows.

We recommend using the OAuth 2.0 JSON Web Token (JWT) bearer flow to set up OAuth flow.
