About Segment

The Segment Public API backs this connector. Iru reads workspace settings, sources and destinations, tracking plans, and membership metadata - enough to evidence how customer data flows through Segment. The integration is read-only on the Iru side; it does not send events or change workspace configuration. Only Workspace Owners can create Public API tokens in Segment.

​
How It Works

Iru authenticates with a Bearer token (Segment Public API access token): 
Authorization: Bearer YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN

Prerequisites

  • Workspace Owner on the Segment workspace you need for compliance.
  • A few minutes to create the token and paste it into Iru.

​
Connect Segment to Iru

Complete this tab before you connect the source in Compliance.
1

Sign in to Segment

Open Segment and sign in with a user who can manage workspace tokens.
2

Open Settings

Select Settings (gear) from the Segment app chrome.
3

Open Workspace Settings

Choose Workspace Settings for the workspace Iru should read.
4

Open Access Management

Select Access Management (or Members & access), then open Tokens.
5

Create a token

Select Create token (or New token). Enter a name such as Iru Compliance.
6

Choose a token role

Pick a role aligned to least privilege:
  • Workspace Owner: Broad API access; use when you need full workspace visibility for audits.
  • Workspace Member: Narrower; may omit resources your program cares about.
7

Copy the token and store it safely

Create the token and copy it immediately. Segment shows it once. Treat it like a password until you paste it in Iru Compliance.Segment may auto-revoke tokens detected in public repositories; owners get notified.
Continue on the Iru Compliance tab.

​
Troubleshooting

Check pop-up blocker settings for the Iru site and try again.
Copy the token exactly; confirm it was not deleted or auto-revoked.
Prefer a Workspace Owner token over a limited Member token.
Tokens are workspace-scoped - create the token in the workspace you connected in Iru.
