Built for Synchronization

This service is designed to help anyone continuously export (i.e. "sync") bulk data from Square.

If you only need to export your data one time, check the website of Square to see if their service offers a one-time export feature natively. Sometimes a Data Source's native export feature may provide not as much data as its API does, in which case Flatly is the solution.

Additional Information

Flatly uses official API channels to provide an integration with Square.
Square, Inc. is a financial services, merchant services aggregator, and mobile payment company based in San Francisco, California.
Scopes

Flatly's access to Plaid and Plaid's downstream connected financial institutions is read-only access to text. It is limited to account data (words, numbers, dates). It does not include any money-movement, transfer capabilities or account holder profiles/identities.

Plaid alone interfaces directly with financial institutions, caches data from those institutions on Plaid infrastructure, and then makes the appropriate scoped subset of that data available to partners like Flatly using secure connections called client libraries.

Schema Simplicity

Flatly leverages intelligent schema generation that adapts to BigQuery's auto-detection protocols, handling data type inference and column ordering automatically so you never have to manually map fields.

Sanitized Data

Data hygiene is built directly into the ingestion process. Before a single row is written to BigQuery, Flatly validates your data against a generated reference schema. It proactively detects and strips out "schema violators" —inconsistent data types or malformed records that would typically cause a load job to crash. Flatly logs these exclusions in a detailed metadata file, ensuring your pipeline remains resilient and continuous while giving you full transparency into data quality issues.

Performance

Designed for scale and flexibility, the engine processes data in memory-optimized chunks to handle massive datasets efficiently. It offers powerful pre-load controls, allowing you to filter rows based on custom logic (e.g., date ranges, specific values) and allowlist specific keys. This ensures that you only sync high-value data, optimizing your BigQuery storage costs and query performance. Everything is secured via Service Account authentication, providing a stable, production-grade connection for your most critical analytics dashboards.
