Prerequisites

Before creating a ReSci credential, you need to obtain your API key from your ReSci account. ReSci uses API key authentication for all API requests, with the API key sent in the Authorization header with the ApiKey prefix.

To obtain your ReSci API key, follow these steps:

  1. Sign in to your ReSci account using your administrator credentials.

  2. Navigate to your account settings or API management section in the ReSci interface.

  3. Look for the API or API Keys section in your account settings, or navigate to Settings > API or Developers > API Keys.

  4. If you don't have an API key yet, look for the option to generate or view your API key.

  5. Click Generate API Key or Create API Key to create a new API key.

  6. Configure your API key settings:

    • Enter a name for the API key (e.g., "Nexla Integration")
    • Review and select the permissions or scopes for the key (if applicable)
  7. Click Generate or Create to create the API key.

  8. Copy the API key immediately after it's generated, as it may not be accessible again after you navigate away from the page.

  9. Store the API key securely, as you will need it to configure your Nexla credential. The API key is sensitive information and should be kept confidential.

The API key is sent in the Authorization header with the ApiKey prefix (e.g., ApiKey {your_api_key}) for all API requests to the ReSci API. The API key authenticates your requests and grants access to ReSci resources based on your account permissions. If your API key is compromised, you should immediately revoke it in your ReSci account settings and generate a new one. For detailed information about obtaining API keys, API authentication, and available endpoints, refer to the ReSci API documentation.

Create a credential in Nexla

  1. After selecting the data source/destination type, click the Add Credential tile to open the Add New Credential overlay.

  1. Enter a name for the credential in the Credential Name field and a short, meaningful description in the Credential Description field.

  2. ReSci uses API key authentication for all API requests. Enter your ReSci API key in the API Key Value field. This is the API key you obtained from your ReSci account settings (API or API Keys section). The API key is sent in the Authorization header with the ApiKey prefix (e.g., ApiKey {your_api_key}) for all API requests to the ReSci API and must be kept confidential.

    Your ReSci API key can be found in your ReSci account settings under the API or API Keys section. The API key is sent in the Authorization header with the ApiKey prefix (e.g., ApiKey {your_api_key}) for all API requests to the ReSci API.

    If your API key is compromised, you should immediately revoke it in your ReSci account settings and generate a new one. The API key provides access to your ReSci account data and should be treated as sensitive information. Keep your API key secure and do not share it publicly.

    For detailed information about obtaining API keys, API authentication, and available endpoints, see the ReSci API documentation.

  3. Click the Save button at the bottom of the overlay. The newly added credential will now appear in a tile on the Authenticate screen during data source/destination creation.

Use as a data source

To create a new data flow, navigate to the Integrate section, and click the New Data Flow button. Select the ReSci connector tile, then select the credential that will be used to connect to your ReSci account, and click Next; or, create a new ReSci credential for use in this flow.

Endpoint templates

Nexla provides pre-built templates that can be used to rapidly configure data sources to ingest data from common ReSci endpoints. Select the endpoint from which this source will fetch data from the Endpoint pulldown menu. Available endpoint templates are listed in the expandable boxes below.

List Impost Jobs

This endpoint template returns a list of import jobs in descending chronological order, 10 records at a time, from your ReSci account. Use this template when you need to retrieve information about import jobs, including job IDs, status, and other job metadata.

  • This endpoint automatically retrieves import jobs from your ReSci account. The endpoint uses offset-based pagination to handle large datasets efficiently, returning 10 records at a time.

This endpoint returns a list of import jobs in descending chronological order from your ReSci account, including job IDs, status, and other job metadata. The endpoint uses offset-based pagination with offset and count parameters to handle large datasets efficiently. Nexla will automatically fetch subsequent pages of data by incrementing the offset parameter.

For detailed information about import jobs, API response structures, pagination, and available job data, see the ReSci API documentation.

Get Lists

This endpoint template retrieves all lists that have not been deleted from your ReSci account. Use this template when you need to retrieve information about available lists, including list IDs, names, and other list metadata.

  • This endpoint automatically retrieves all non-deleted lists from your ReSci account. No additional configuration is required beyond selecting this endpoint template.

This endpoint returns all lists that have not been deleted from your ReSci account, including list IDs, names, and other list metadata. Use this endpoint to discover which lists are available in your ReSci account.

For detailed information about list management, API response structures, and available list data, see the ReSci API documentation.

Once the selected endpoint template has been configured, click the Test button to the right of the endpoint selection menu to retrieve a sample of the data that will be fetched. Sample data will be displayed in the Endpoint Test Result panel on the right, allowing you to verify that the source is configured correctly before saving.

Manual configuration

ReSci data sources can also be manually configured to ingest data from any valid ReSci API endpoint, including endpoints not covered by the pre-built templates, chained API calls, or custom query parameters. Select the Advanced tab at the top of the configuration screen, and follow the instructions in Connect to Any API to configure the API method, endpoint URL, date/time and lookup macros, path to data, metadata, and request headers.

ReSci API typically uses the GET method. Endpoint URLs include the API version and resource path (e.g., https://data.retentionscience.com/v3/import_jobs, https://data.retentionscience.com/v3/lists). For the Response Data Path, use $[*] to extract all items from a response array, or $.data[*] to extract items from a data array, depending on the endpoint. ReSci API uses offset-based pagination with offset and count parameters for endpoints that support it.

Once all of the relevant settings have been configured, click the Next button to proceed with the rest of the data flow configuration, or click Save to save the data source configuration for later use.
