Connectors
See the Sovos products connected to Sovos Intelligence and review sync activity.
Connectors link Sovos Intelligence to your Sovos products so the platform receives validated, regulatory-grade data directly, with no third-party tools. Connectors run automated syncs on a schedule. Sovos configures connectors during implementation, so you don't set up the sync yourself. The Connectors section is available to Organization Admins and Collaborators. Read-Only users don't have access.
Available connectors, each tagged Add-on and Sovos Built:
- VAT Filing
- Transaction-level invoice data. Refreshed every 24 hours from first activation.
- SAF-T
- Detailed data following the SAF-T structures. Refreshed every 24 hours from first activation.
- Compliance Network
- Archived document data and tax-authority responses. Refreshed every six hours.
- Data Upload (Enterprise)
- Upload your own data (see Upload data).
On Enterprise, Sovos can configure organization-specific cadences during implementation. The amount of initial historical load, or backfill, isn't a global default. It's defined by the connector configuration during implementation.
Syncs run automatically, and you can review the history in Sync Logs. A connector detail also shows a sync status banner, for example, "Data sync completed. Last successful sync at <time>." The system stores these timestamps in UTC and displays them in the signed-in user's timezone, falling back to UTC if none is set.
To trigger a sync immediately, independent of the schedule, use Get Data, which opens a confirmation pop-up. It's available to Organization Admins and Collaborators. There's no fixed rate limit on manual syncs, but the button is briefly disabled after a trigger, and the connector page polls sync status about every 10 seconds while a run is in progress.
End-to-end latency is not guaranteed. It depends on source volumes and job runtimes.
View a connector
Select Connectors. Each connector appears as a card with its name, icon, description, tags, and last sync time.
Select a card to open its detail. This shows a sync status banner, for example, "Data sync completed" with the last successful sync time, along with the connector's description and a Settings tab.
The Settings tab shows the account mapping, from Intelligence Company to Account ID. This mapping links your Intelligence workspace to the corresponding Sovos product account for row-level security.
Create a connection
From a connector's detail page, select Add Configuration to open the Create Connection form:

Sovos configures this connection with you during implementation.
Sync Logs
Select the Sync Logs tab to review synchronization history. You can filter by date range. Two charts summarize the data:
- Monthly records
- A doughnut chart that shows total records synced.
- Sync summary
- A bar chart that shows total records synced by connector, with a year selector.
Below the charts, the log table lists each sync with these columns:
-
