# Foursquare Movement Source ## Source Info * The Foursquare Movement Source is an **Event Cloud** source. This means that it sends data as events, which are behaviors or occurrences tied to a user and a point in time. Data from these sources can be loaded into your Segment warehouses, and **also** sent to Segment streaming destinations. [Learn more about cloud sources.](/docs/segment/connections/sources#cloud-app-sources) * This integration is **partner owned** . Please reach out to the partner's support for any issues. > \[!WARNING] > > This Source is only supported in workspaces configured to process data in the US region. Workspaces configured with data processing regions outside of the US cannot connect to this source. For more information, see [Regional Segment](/docs/segment/guides/regional-segment/). [Foursquare's Movement SDK](https://location.foursquare.com/products/movement-sdk/) provides real-time event triggering based upon your users' location in the physical world, allowing you to harness FourSquare's powerful geotargeting capabilities to send those events to other services using Segment. This destination is maintained by Foursquare. For any issues with the destination, contact the [Foursquare Developer support team](mailto:developers@foursquare.com). > \[!IMPORTANT] > > This means the feature is actively being developed, and some functionality may change before it becomes generally available. ## Getting started 1. From the Segment web app, click **Catalog**. 2. Search for "Foursquare Movement" in the catalog, select it, and choose which of your sources to connect the it to. 3. Once you save Foursquare Movement as a source, copy your "Write Key". 4. Go to your [Foursquare Developer Console](https://foursquare.com/developers/apps/) and create a new Segment integration in your Foursquare app's Movement SDK console. There you can enter the Segment "Write Key" into the Segment Integration Configuration screen. ## Events The following table lists events that Foursquare's Movement SDK sends to Segment. These events will show up as tables in your warehouse, and as regular events in your other destinations. Foursquare will send through the `userId` if available. | Event name | Description | | ---------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | placeArrival | Device has arrived at a venue.

Log in to your downstream tools and check that your events appear and contain all the expected properties. If events and properties do not appear, refer to the relevant destination docs for troubleshooting. If you experience any issues with how the events arrive in Segment, [contact the Foursquare team](mailto:developers@foursquare.com).
