openapi: 3.2.0
info:
  title: Census Activations REST Destinations Sources API
  description: 'The Census Activations REST API (formerly the Census Management API, now branded

    as Fivetran Activations) provides programmatic access to manage workspaces,

    sources, destinations, models, syncs, sync runs, and segments. The API is split

    into Workspace APIs (authenticated via workspace access tokens) and Organization

    APIs (authenticated via personal access tokens). This best-effort OpenAPI is

    derived from the public documentation at

    https://fivetran.com/docs/activations/rest-api/api-reference/introduction.
