Note: This checklist is applicable only to brand new destinations. Refer to the New destination version release checklist for existing destination steps.

This checklist is used when a new destination is slated for release. Note: This may not be the full list of tasks required to release a destination. Refer to the documentation task in JIRA for the full list.

Items marked as REQUIRED must be completed prior to release.

Required	Description
REQUIRED	Add base documentation Create the base documentation for the destination.
REQUIRED	Add reference data files Data about destinations are kept in `_data` files, which allows for use throughout the docs. In this step, you’ll create the base data files for the destination.
REQUIRED	Add data typing info Stitch converts data types only where needed to ensure data is compatible when loaded into a destination. Learn more about the Stitch data typing process here. In this step, you’ll add the mapping info for data types to the destination’s `data-types.yml` data file.
REQUIRED	Add the destination's reference page Destination references (or overviews) are a high-level look at a given version of a destination. They include information about how the loading process for the destination works, what features Stitch supports, and any known limitations of the destination.
REQUIRED	Add data file for UI fields Add the list of UI fields the user must complete in Stitch to successfully connect the destination. This data is used in the destination’s setup guide.
REQUIRED	Complete user privileges data file Add info about the user privileges Stitch requires to successfully connect and load data into the destination. This includes the privileges themselves, the SQL commands the user has to run, if any, and the steps for creating the Stitch user. Data from this file is used in the destination’s setup guide to generate instructions for creating a Stitch user.
REQUIRED	Add the setup guide(s) Create the setup guide(s) for the destination, including requirements and specific steps. Note: A destination may have more than one setup guide, if there are variants of a destination that Stitch can support.
REQUIRED	Add API connection property object Every new destination has a corresponding destination connection property object in the Connect API. This will create the destination connection property object documentation for the destination.
