Automated File Feeds
Automate data onboarding by capturing, validating, mapping, and delivering structured partner data - without custom ETL pipelines.
Automated File Feeds is a purpose-built automation layer for recurring partner file integration, replacing manual SFTP scripts and fragile CSV workflows with reliable validation, schema control, and structured data delivery.
STEP 1 – Set Up Clients
Create a Client to provision a dedicated, secure SFTP space and credentials for each data source, designed for recurring partner data and SFTP file automation.
STEP 2 – Define a Schema
Model the dataset you expect (fields, types, required, formats) using JSON Schema. This enables structured data mapping and schema control across recurring file feeds.
STEP 3 – Create a Pipeline
Connect a Client + Schema and add field mappings, transforms, and CSV options. Configure automated file processing rules and validation automation to ensure consistent handling of recurring file feeds.
STEP 4 – Register a Webhook
Receive signed events when files are received, processed, reprocessed, or fail. Connect SFTP sources or file-based integrations for automated ingestion, and use webhooks to stay in sync with every stage of the automated file processing lifecycle.
STEP 5 – Client Uploads Files
Clients upload to their SFTP folder manually or via scheduled exports from their systems. Files are automatically picked up, where validation automation and mapping logic are applied before structured delivery.
STEP 6 – Monitor Pipeline Runs & Search Through Files
Track run status, search files, and download original or processed files. Maintain data validation automation across recurring file workflows by continuously monitoring execution states and handling errors in real time.
STEP 7 – Handle Processed Data
Process data in your backend using webhooks + REST API to fetch full JSON. Deliver structured partner data to your destination endpoints after validation and transformation are complete.
Automated File Feeds streamline data onboarding by providing a structured approach to handle recurring file feeds. It's more than just a file import tool; it's a complete system designed for consistent data integration. Automate your complex data workflows without building custom ETL pipelines.
The file ingestion layer supports SFTP and file-based data collection, providing a secure and reliable mechanism to ingest data from various sources. Data is collected and prepared for the subsequent validation and transformation processes. This ensures compatibility with existing systems.
The validation layer enforces data quality by employing validation automation. Rules are applied to check for errors and inconsistencies, ensuring data compliance and adherence to predefined schemas. This layer safeguards your data from format issues and incorrect data types.
This layer transforms data into a structured format that aligns with your business requirements. Complex data mapping and transformations are handled with ease, allowing you to transform raw data into valuable insights. Apply transformations and ensure consistency.
The delivery layer ensures that the processed data is delivered to the correct endpoints in a structured format. Configure endpoint routing to deliver the transformed data to your databases or other systems, ensuring seamless data integration. Data is delivered efficiently.
Data and operations teams face significant challenges with manual SFTP monitoring, requiring constant vigilance to ensure files arrive correctly. Automate this process to eliminate manual checks and free up valuable resources. This reduces the risk of data loss or delays and streamlines data onboarding processes.
Broken file formats and inconsistent headers often lead to data integration errors. Data validation becomes complex when dealing with variable CSV structures. Automated File Feeds offer a robust solution to clean and standardize incoming files, ensuring data compliance and reliable data processing.
Schema drift in recurring partner feeds is a common issue that can break data pipelines. The ability to handle schema changes without disrupting the data flow is crucial. Automated file feeds provide the flexibility to adapt to evolving data structures, ensuring continuous data integration.
Fragile cron jobs and custom scripts are prone to failure, leading to inconsistent data imports and increased maintenance overhead. Replace these unreliable solutions with robust, automated file feeds for reliable and scalable data onboarding. Ensure continuous data delivery and minimize downtime.
Manual one-time CSV imports are suitable for ad-hoc data loading but lack the automation required for recurring data feeds. These processes require constant user intervention, limiting scalability. For recurring data feeds, consider automated file processing for consistent data integration.
The Embeddable CSV Importer is designed for developer teams building onboarding flows for user-driven, one-time uploads. It’s a free product that provides an easy way to import data from spreadsheets directly into your application. Perfect for handling occasional data onboarding needs.
Automated File Feeds are designed for companies managing recurring partner or customer data feeds. These systems provide automated, recurring ingestion workflows, ensuring consistent data delivery without manual intervention. This ensures reliable data processing, leading to faster time-to-insight for your business.
