Configuration

Accepted Config Options

Settings

Setting	Required	Default	Description
api_key	True	None	The Freshservice API key
updated_since	False	2000-01-01T00:00:00Z	The earliest record date to sync. You probably need this! The Freshservice API only returns items less than 30 days old. To override this, you must include an 'updated_since' value in the URL querystring. Providing a value here will ensure this value is used if there is no state (i.e. for a full refresh).
base_url	False	https://.freshservice.com/api/v2	The url for the Freshservice API
stream_maps	False	None	Config object for stream maps capability. For more information check out Stream Maps.
stream_map_config	False	None	User-defined config values to be used within map expressions.
flattening_enabled	False	None	'True' to enable schema flattening and automatically expand nested properties.
flattening_max_depth	False	None	The max depth to flatten schemas.
batch_config	False	None

Configure using environment variables

This Singer tap will automatically import any environment variables within the working directory's .env if the --config=ENV is provided, such that config values will be considered if a matching environment variable is set either in the terminal context or in the .env file.

Testing with Meltano

Note: This tap will work in any Singer environment and does not require Meltano. Examples here are for convenience and to streamline end-to-end orchestration scenarios.

Next, install Meltano (if you haven't already) and any needed plugins:

# Install meltano
pipx install meltano
# Initialize meltano within this directory
cd tap-freshservice
meltano install

Now you can test and orchestrate using Meltano:

# Test invocation:
meltano invoke tap-freshservice --version
# OR run a test `elt` pipeline:
meltano elt tap-freshservice target-jsonl
