Send data from Twilio Segment
Segment customers deliver data through one of Segment's warehouse or storage destinations. Which one to use depends on your Segment plan, because Scowtt needs updates at least 4 times a day.
How it works: You add a BigQuery or S3 destination in Segment and give Scowtt read-only access. Scowtt checks the first sync with you.
| Segment plan | Use | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Business | BigQuery destination | Syncs up to 24 times a day |
| Free or Team | AWS S3 (Actions) destination, to a bucket you own | The BigQuery destination syncs only once a day on Free and twice a day on Team, below Scowtt's minimum |
Steps
-
You: Add the destination in Segment
Add the BigQuery destination, or the AWS S3 (Actions) destination, depending on your plan.
Segment's step-by-step guides: BigQuery destination and AWS S3 (Actions) destination.
-
You: Set the sync schedule
Choose the most frequent schedule your plan allows: at least 4 times a day, ideally hourly.
-
You: Give Scowtt read access
For BigQuery, see Share data through BigQuery. For S3, see Share data through Amazon S3. Then send your Scowtt team the dataset or bucket path.

Scowtt: Check the first sync with you
Scowtt validates the first sync with you, then turns on recurring reads.
