Set up destination

3. Clicking Add Airship will require you to select/insert the following information:

   

   1. Destination Info:

      1. Destination Name: This is how the destination will be named and referred to in to the app going forward. It is helpful to make this name “marketer friendly” so everyone on your team knows its purpose.
      2. Sync frequency: This is the default frequency audiences will be synced to a destination. Marketers can always change frequency of an export to Airship, but this sets the default.

   2. Credentials:

      1. Region: The region that you’re accessing the destination from.
      2. Access Token: The token generated from your Airship dashboard.
