In this step of our quickstart tutorial, we will guide you through connecting a data destination. If your destination is a dashboarding app, you can skip to the next step, creating a data flow, right away!
Prerequisites
Before starting, make sure that your account or user has sufficient permissions to create new items, view items, change items, add new entries, and remove entries. These permissions can create
, select
, update
, insert
, and delete
data in the destination.
If your destination is a data storage, please whitelist Dataddo IPs in your destination to ensure incoming connection from Dataddo is accepted.
Select Your Destination
On the Destinations page, click on Create Destination and select your destination.
Apart from dashboarding apps, you can choose to send your data to data storages or even applications for reverse ETL. Simply filter by clicking on available categories or select your destination via search bar.
Add Your Account
Click on the Add New Account button to add a new authorizer to authenticate Dataddo's connection to your destination. There are two possibilities:
- For destinations that require OAuth (Google BigQuery, Google Sheets, HubSpot as a Destination), authorize the account following on-screen prompts. You will be redirected to the service's page to finish this step.
- For other data storages, fill out all the required fields. In general, you should fill in:
hostname
,database name
,username
,password
, andport
.- For more information, see our destination specific how-to guides.
Finally Save and congratulations, your data destination is ready!

Now, you can create a data flow and finish your data extraction and writing process!
