Frequently asked

Questions about FreshBooks.

Does Bruin connect to FreshBooks?

Yes, through the FreshBooks API: a Python asset calls it and returns rows, and Bruin handles materialization, the incremental strategy and the checks. Or share test credentials and we build a dedicated connector within 7 days, or build it yourself and contribute it to ingestr.

How fresh is the data?

As fresh as your schedule. Incremental loads append, merge or replace a time window, every few minutes if you like.

Do we need Bruin Cloud?

No. The Bruin CLI and ingestr run locally, in CI or in your own orchestrator. Bruin Cloud adds scheduling, lineage, alerts and the AI data analyst on top.
