Basecamp

Business software

Built when you ask for it

Sync Basecamp projects, to-dos, and message data into your warehouse. Ingest builds this connector the first time a customer asks for it, then keeps the tables current in a data warehouse you own, on the schedule you choose.

The Basecamp connector syncs your project management data into analytics-ready tables in your data warehouse. Pull projects, todos, messages, and people from the Basecamp API, with Ingest handling auth, pagination, and retries so the tables stay current.

What you would get

Each of these arrives as its own table, kept current on the schedule you choose:

  • Projects
  • Todos
  • Messages
  • People

How it gets built

  1. Choose Basecamp when you set up a pipeline, with the warehouse it goes to and a schedule.
  2. Ingest reads Basecamp's documentation, and you choose the tables you want.
  3. Ingest builds the connector and tests it against Basecamp itself.
  4. A person at Ingest reviews and publishes it, and your pipeline starts on its own.

What you will need

OAuth2. Register your app at launchpad.37signals.com/integrations and complete the OAuth2 flow for a Bearer access token.

You enter it once, in a form in Ingest, and it is kept in a secret store set aside for your organization.

Questions

Does Ingest have a Basecamp connector?
Not as a finished connector yet. Ingest builds it from Basecamp's own documentation the first time a customer asks, tests it against the real service, and lists it once it passes.
Which warehouses can Basecamp data go to?
Amazon S3, Google Cloud Storage, Azure Blob Storage, Apache Iceberg, Ingest Managed Lakehouse, MotherDuck, Postgres, Amazon Athena, Databricks, Redshift, BigQuery, ClickHouse, MySQL / generic SQL and Snowflake, in an account you own.
Do I need to write code?
No. Ingest builds, runs and maintains the connector. Someone with access to your warehouse connects it once, following a short guide.

Basecamp API documentation: https://github.com/basecamp/bc-api

Setting up the destination is its own short guide, one per warehouse or lake: Amazon S3, Google Cloud Storage, Azure Blob Storage, Apache Iceberg, Ingest Managed Lakehouse, MotherDuck, Postgres, Amazon Athena, Databricks, Redshift, BigQuery, ClickHouse, MySQL / generic SQL, Snowflake.

Other sources Ingest connects for SaaS teams: Asana, Jira, Airtable, Clockify, Facebook Ads, Frankfurter.
