Send Usage Data

Overview

In this destination service, DinMo will send usage events to Zuora.

To do so, you will need to go through these three steps:

  • Creating a Zuora destination. Refer to the corresponding section for more info.

  • Creating a user segment composed of all the usage events that will be inserted n Zuora.

  • Activating the event segment to the Zuora destination to start sending data. Refer to the corresponding section for more info.

The destination service only supports “insert only” mode, meaning that we will insert any new event usage in the Orders table.

Destination Setup

To start synchronizing usage event, you are first required to create a Zuora destination with the corresponding destination service.

Learn how to create such a destination in our step-by-step tutorial.

Activation Configuration

Once the destination has been setup, and your DinMo segment / model created, you can create an activation to start sending data to Zuora right away.

Fields mapping

In the Fields mapping section, you are asked to specify the field contained in your DinMo segment / model corresponding to the attributes you want to update for each usage event.

To insert a new usage event, Zuora requires several attributes. You must map them all to create a new event. These fields may differ depending on your account configuration.

Most of the time, Zuora requires: Account ID, Account Number, Quantity, Start Date Time and Unit of Measure .

If you wish, you can map any other fields that exist in DinMo and that you wish to keep up to date in Zuora.

Scheduling

Define how frequently your data is updated in Zuora. With each scheduled update, DinMo will insert new usage events, with their custom attributes.

Warnings

In this section, specify if you want to receive warning for your Zuora activation.

Consult the specific section to learn more about sync warnings.
