Destination delivery
To offer more control over where the data exported to your destination lands, Destination SDK allows you to specify destination delivery settings.
The destination delivery section indicates where the exported data goes and what authentication rule is used in the location where the data will land.
To understand where this component fits into an integration created with Destination SDK, see the diagram in the configuration options documentation or see the following destination configuration overview pages:
You can configure destination delivery settings via the /authoring/destinations endpoint. See the following API reference pages for detailed API call examples where you can configure the components shown in this page.
This article describes all the supported destination delivery options that you can use for your destination.
