The impact.com Partner connector syncs the data your partner (publisher) account sees on [impact.com](https://impact.com): the brand programs you've joined, the conversions credited to you, and the invoices for your earnings. If your account is a brand (advertiser) account, use the [impact.com source](https://posthog.com/docs/data-pipelines/sources/impact.md) instead.

## Prerequisites

You need an impact.com partner account with API access. The connector authenticates with an API access token, which any account user can create from their profile settings.

## Adding a data source

1.  In PostHog, go to the [Sources tab](https://app.posthog.com/data-management/sources) of the data pipeline section.
2.  Click **\+ New source** and click **Link** next to this source.
3.  Enter your credentials (see [Configuration](#configuration) below) and click **Next**.
4.  Select the tables you want to sync, choose a sync method and frequency, then click **Import**.

Once the syncs are complete, you can start querying this data in PostHog.

When linking impact.com Partner, you'll need:

-   **Account SID** and **Auth token** from an impact.com API access token.

To get these:

1.  Log in to [impact.com](https://app.impact.com).
2.  Go to your user profile, then **Settings** → **Technical** → **API**.
3.  Create an access token with read-only scopes.
4.  Copy the token's Account SID and Auth Token into PostHog.

## Sync modes

Each table can be synced in one of several modes, depending on what the source supports:

-   **Webhook** (when available) – the source pushes changes to PostHog in real time. Fastest freshness, lowest ongoing cost, and the only mode that reliably captures updates and deletes.
-   **Incremental** – only new or updated rows are synced on each run, using a cursor field (such as an `updated_at` timestamp). Cheaper than a full refresh, but deletes aren't captured.
-   **Append only** – new rows are appended using a cursor field; existing rows are never updated. Ideal for immutable, append-only tables like event logs.
-   **Full refresh** – the whole table is reloaded on every sync. Use it when a table has no reliable cursor or when you need deletions reflected.

See [sync methods](https://posthog.com/docs/data-pipelines/sources.md#sync-methods) for a full explanation of how each mode works and how to choose between them.

The `Actions` table supports incremental sync on `EventDate`, and `Invoices` on `CreatedDate`. On the first sync, `Actions` backfills up to 3 years of history in 44-day chunks, which is a limit of the impact.com API.

## Configuration

| Option | Type | Required |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `Account SID` | text | Yes |
| `Auth token` | password | Yes |

## Supported tables

| Table | Description | Sync method | Incremental field | Primary key |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `Campaigns` | The brand programs (campaigns) you've joined on Impact.com. Full refresh only. | Full refresh | — | — |
| `Actions` | Conversion and commission records credited to you, fetched in 44-day windows (an Impact.com API limit). Only syncs the last 3 years on initial sync. | Incremental, Full refresh | EventDate | — |
| `Invoices` | Invoices issued to you for your earnings. | Incremental, Full refresh | CreatedDate | — |

## Troubleshooting

-   **Invalid credentials when connecting**: check that the Account SID and Auth Token belong to a partner (publisher) account. Brand and agency accounts use different APIs, so a brand token won't validate here. For brand accounts, use the [impact.com source](https://posthog.com/docs/data-pipelines/sources/impact.md).
-   **Missing older actions**: the impact.com API only returns actions from the last 3 years, so the initial backfill stops there.

If your sync is failing or data looks wrong, see the [Data warehouse troubleshooting guide](https://posthog.com/docs/data-warehouse/troubleshooting.md). If that doesn't help, [contact support](https://us.posthog.com/#panel=support%3Asupport%3Adata_warehouse%3A%3Atrue) – we're happy to help.
