Vantage is a cloud cost intelligence and FinOps platform that provides API access to cloud provider data, pricing, cost reports, forecasts, and financial commitments. Its REST API lets you programmatically read cost analytics and manage resources such as cost reports, cost alerts, workspaces, virtual tags, and managed accounts.
Power end-to-end data operations for your Vantage API with Nexla. Our bi-directional Vantage connector is purpose-built for Vantage, making it simple to ingest data, sync it across systems, and deliver it anywhere — all with no coding required. Nexla turns API-sourced data into ready-to-use, reusable data products and makes it easy to send data to Vantage or any other destination. With comprehensive monitoring, lineage tracking, and access controls, Nexla keeps your Vantage workflows fast, secure, and fully governed.

Before creating a Vantage credential, you need an API access token from your Vantage account. The Vantage API authenticates every request with a bearer token passed in the Authorization header using the format Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN.
To obtain your Vantage API access token, follow these steps:
Open the Settings screen and select API Access Tokens from the left navigation menu.
Enter a name for the new token, choose a team if applicable, and select the Read and/or Write scope depending on how you intend to use the connector. Read scope is sufficient to ingest data as a source; Write scope is required to create or update resources as a destination.
Click Create, then click Show to reveal your token and copy it. Store the token securely, as it grants access to your Vantage cost data.
Owner-level users can also create service tokens, which are associated with the account rather than an individual user. For more detail on token types, scopes, and authentication, see the Vantage API documentation.
After selecting the data source/destination type, click the Add Credential tile to open the Add New Credential overlay.
Enter a name for the credential in the Credential Name field and a short, meaningful description in the Credential Description field.
Enter your Vantage API access token in the API Key field. This token is sent as a bearer token in the Authorization header for all API requests and must be kept confidential.
Enter the API base URL in the Base URL field. In most cases this is https://api.vantage.sh.
If your API access token is compromised, revoke it in the Vantage Settings > API Access Tokens screen and generate a new one. The token grants access to your Vantage cost data and should be treated as sensitive information.
For detailed information about authentication, scopes, and available endpoints, see the Vantage API documentation.
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.
To create a new data flow, navigate to the Integrate section, and click the New Data Flow button. Select the Vantage connector tile, then select the credential that will be used to connect to Vantage, and click Next; or, create a new Vantage credential for use in this flow.
