The Scenario
You are a data governance analyst. A platform audit starts next week.
Your company has 10 active Segment destinations — Mixpanel, Salesforce, Amplitude, Braze, Klaviyo, Intercom, BigQuery, Snowflake, and two custom webhook destinations. The auditors want documentation of each destination's current configuration: enabled status, connection mode, and key settings.
You have the destination IDs in column A of an Excel workbook. You need the configuration details in adjacent columns before the audit kickoff call Thursday morning.
The manual version:
- Log into Segment
- Navigate to each destination's settings panel one at a time
- Read the values, copy them into the workbook by hand
- Repeat 10 times
- Discover partway through that two destinations have had settings changed since you last checked
- Thursday morning. The auditors are on the call. You have seven of ten destinations documented.
The fast version is one prompt.
The Easy Way: One Prompt in SheetXAI
SheetXAI reads the Segment API and writes destination configuration details into the workbook, so you do not have to click through each destination's settings panel by hand.
Open the SheetXAI sidebar and type:
For each destination ID in column A, fetch the Segment destination configuration and write the destination name, enabled status, and connection mode into columns B, C, and D of the Destination Audit tab.
SheetXAI reads column A, calls Segment's API for each destination ID, and writes the name, enabled status, and connection mode back into the workbook per row.
What You Get
A documentation tab with one row per destination:
- Column A — destination ID (your source data)
- Column B — destination display name
- Column C — enabled (true) or disabled (false)
- Column D — connection mode (cloud, device, hybrid)
The data comes directly from Segment's API, current as of the moment you ran the prompt. No screenshots, no manual copying.
What If the Data Is Not Quite Ready
Audit documentation always needs more than the basics. SheetXAI can pull additional fields and flag issues in the same prompt.
When auditors want the full settings object
The audit requires documenting every configurable field, not just enabled status and connection mode.
For each destination ID in column A, fetch the Segment destination configuration and write the destination name into column B, enabled status into column C, and the full settings object as a JSON string into column D of the Destination Audit tab.
When you need to flag disabled destinations
The audit needs to call out any destination that is currently disabled.
For each destination ID in column A, fetch the Segment destination configuration and write the destination name into column B and enabled status into column C. In column D, write "DISABLED — review needed" for any destination where enabled is false, and leave column D blank otherwise.
When you want to compare current configuration against a baseline tab
You have a Baseline tab with the expected configuration for each destination. You want to flag any destination where the current enabled status does not match the baseline.
For each destination ID in column A, fetch the Segment destination configuration and write the destination name into column B and current enabled status into column C. Compare column C to the Expected Status column in the Baseline tab (matched by destination ID). Write MATCH or MISMATCH into column D.
When you need names, statuses, settings, and a mismatch flag all in one pass
The full audit requires all fields plus a comparison against the expected baseline.
For each destination ID in column A, fetch the Segment destination configuration. Write the destination name into column B, enabled status into column C, connection mode into column D, and full settings object as JSON into column E. Compare the enabled status to the Expected Status in the Baseline tab and write MATCH or MISMATCH into column F.
The pattern: describe the documentation structure and the comparison logic in one prompt.
Try It
Get the 7-day free trial of SheetXAI and open any workbook with Segment destination IDs, then ask it to pull the configuration details for each one. The Segment integration is included in every SheetXAI plan. For related workflows, see how to pull source schema settings for audit or the Segment in Excel overview.
