Autopilot: Custom Endpoint

About the stream

You can stream activities generated in Autopilot to your custom endpoint.

How to enable the stream

In Settings go to "Activity Streams", then "Custom Endpoint":

Click "Connect Custom Endpoint". You will then be asked for a URL that can receive a JSON stream. Please note that in order to ensure the data we send you is encrypted, you need to provide an HTTPS URL. You will receive an email when your stream has been provisioned. Please allow up to 48 hours for this to occur.

How will my activities be sent?

Activities are sent to your specified endpoint as new line delimited JSON strings.

json
 
{"id":"71e4ae20-5a52-48e3-84a0-6a5510050e27","action":"journey.entered", .. }\n {"id":"b477b8da-2ea4-4cca-a781-0e23bb79accc","action":"journey.ejected", .. }\n {"id":"c9777005-9fbd-4b4e-80ed-d3c0417f9092","action":"list.added", ........ }\n

With each line representing an activity and once expanded should look like the example below:

json
 
{ "id" : "cbb1075a-cdb2-4c29-954e-1ca2c8ddab27", "instanceId" : "my-instance-name", "ingestTime" : "2017-09-28T08:54:47.135Z", "timestamp" : "2017-09-28T08:54:47.098Z", "action" : "journey.entered", "isTouch" : false, "tags" : [], "journeyTouchesToDate" : 0, "object" : { "id" : "fd4b62a9-e351-47f2-9c9c-f8d63b06ff5e", "type" : "journey", "name" : "Trial Customer" }, "journey" : { "id" : "85d4286b-3404-453b-ba29-d45a553e9e91", "name" : "Trial Customer" }, "actor": { "id" : "2e148513-6644-4549-885f-b95e669f1b9f", "type" : "contact", "email" : "george@autopilothq.com" }}

Can I stream these activities to Amazon Redshift?

Yes, you can do this using Stitch. If you use Stitch you don't need to connect a custom endpoint as demonstrated above. Please follow the tutorial below and then send the information requested in the video to us. Our team will then provision your stream.
