The best way to create AppFlow SourceFlowConfig for Google Ads while support for Cloudformation being added

0

According to Cloudformation docs, the allowed connector types do not include Google Ads (and many others) https://docs.amazonaws.cn/en_us/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/aws-properties-appflow-flow-sourceflowconfig.html#cfn-appflow-flow-sourceflowconfig-connectortype

What's the best way to provision and manage AWS::AppFlow::Flow resource at the moment?

Thanks! Roman

Hello,

There are two types of connectors, well technically three:

  • Built-in connectors
  • Custom connectors (supplied by AppFlow Partners)
  • Custom connectors (built and controlled by you)

These are also separated by Source and Destination, whether you're pushing or pulling information from the connector.

While Built-in connectors are currently supported as separate CloudFormation resources/properties with pre-defined fields, Custom connectors do not have this capability as any field may be available.

However, there are two CloudFormation resources you should be able to use for custom connectors CustomConnectorDestinationProperties and CustomConnectorSourceProperties. The configurations for these will vary for each connector and at this time I do not have the specific parameters for Google Ads, but through some tinkering you may be able to make this work.

    Thank Chris. Ok, so this makes sense and can be created programmatically.

    Is there a way to embed AppFlow for multiple users outside of aws account? Kinda like a SaaS app, where a user would grant access to their google account and AppFlow get authorization.

    Kinda like described in dev guide https://github.com/awslabs/aws-appflow-custom-connector-python

    Step 4: AppFlow Console presents them with the corresponding authentication flow and AppFlow takes user inputs and invokes validateCredentials function on the connector. If that succeeds, the console presents the screen to take user input for the "connector runtime settings" declared by the connector
