What are the costs associated with Userpilot Data Sync?
Userpilot Data Sync is an add-on feature and may have an associated cost
depending on your Userpilot subscription plan. Please contact your Userpilot

S3, Google Cloud Storage) for storing the exported data and for any data
transfer or API request charges they may levy.

What is the typical latency for data to appear in my storage after an event occurs?
What is the typical latency for data to appear in my storage after an event occurs?
The latency depends on your configured sync frequency. For daily syncs, data
for a given day will be exported after that day (UTC) concludes; specifically,
for the daily sync, we do the sync daily at 3 AM UTC. There is also the
processing time for the sync job itself.
Can I change my storage destination or configuration details later?
Can I change my storage destination or configuration details later?
You can’t change the destination configurations (like the S3 bucket, or GCS
project details) after the initial setup of a Data Sync job. However, you can
modify other export job details such as the job title, sync period/frequency,
data filters, and export formats through the Data Sync settings page in
Userpilot.
How is data security and privacy handled during the sync process?
How is data security and privacy handled during the sync process?
Userpilot uses secure, encrypted connections (HTTPS) to transfer data to your
cloud storage provider. You are responsible for securing your cloud storage
credentials and the storage bucket/container itself according to best
practices. Userpilot only requires write access to the specified location. We
recommend using dedicated credentials with minimal privileges for the Data
Sync feature.
What happens if my Userpilot subscription changes or if I disable Data Sync?
What happens if my Userpilot subscription changes or if I disable Data Sync?
If your subscription plan changes and no longer includes Data Sync, or if you
manually disable the feature, Userpilot will stop exporting new data to your
storage. The data already exported will remain in your storage under your
control.
