We’re thrilled to announce that Airbyte has been hard at work building out Data Activation capabilities (reverse ETL). With Data Activation, you can now use Airbyte to load your consolidated and transformed data into the SaaS tools (HubSpot, Customer.io, and more) where actions get taken. This is a major step forward in making Airbyte not just your solution for consolidating data from 600+ sources into data warehouses, databases or data lakes, but an end-to-end data movement platform.

We’ve been listening: as part of evolving as an Open Standard for moving data, Airbyte should allow for pushing insights back out into SaaS tools. Our ambitions are to eventually support 200+ fully Open Source API destinations, and by releasing Data Activation into early access, we’re taking our first steps.

The early access includes:

• New API Destinations such as Hubspot and Customer.io
• Easy mapping of source fields to required destination schema
• New sync modes: insert, update, upsert and soft delete.
• Support for partial successes with new statistics for records rejected by the destination

Of these, we are particularly excited for UI capabilities to map source fields to the required destination schemas. SaaS tools are particularly finicky to write data into: they require fixed data structure, types and have dozens of validation rules. We help introspect destination schemas for you to reduce the margin of error in configuring new syncs, and allow you to map fields all in one place:

We fully intend on building out an equivalent declarative language (see our manifest for API destinations to support the growth and maintenance of a future 200+ API destinations in the Airbyte Catalog. Until this YAML interface is in place, we will not be accepting Open Source contributions for new API sources.

Get Involved

This is just our first step with Data Activation. We’re looking for early access users to help shape what’s next (sending test records, roadmap for new destinations, and much more). If you’d like to participate, fill out this form now.
