Getting Started


Configure Sage Intacct Connectivity for SnapLogic

Connectivity to Sage Intacct from SnapLogic is made possible through CData Connect Cloud. To work with Sage Intacct data from SnapLogic, we start by creating and configuring a Sage Intacct connection.

  1. Log into Connect Cloud, click Sources, and then click Add Connection
  2. Select "Sage Intacct" from the Add Connection panel
  3. Enter the necessary authentication properties to connect to Sage Intacct.

    To connect using the Login method, the following connection properties are required: User, Password, CompanyId, SenderId and SenderPassword.

    User, Password, and CompanyId are the credentials for the account you wish to connect to.

    SenderId and SenderPassword are the Web Services credentials assigned to you by Sage Intacct.

  4. Click Create & Test
  5. Navigate to the Permissions tab in the Add Sage Intacct Connection page and update the User-based permissions.

Add a Personal Access Token

When connecting to Connect Cloud through the REST API, the OData API, or the Virtual SQL Server, a Personal Access Token (PAT) is used to authenticate the connection to Connect Cloud. It is best practice to create a separate PAT for each service to maintain granularity of access.

  1. Click on the Gear icon () at the top right of the Connect Cloud app to open the settings page.
  2. On the Settings page, go to the Access Tokens section and click Create PAT.
  3. Give the PAT a name and click Create.
  4. The personal access token is only visible at creation, so be sure to copy it and store it securely for future use.

With the connection configured and a PAT generated, you are ready to connect to Sage Intacct data from SnapLogic.
