Additional context

Anything we should know about your source

As far as I can tell there are few resources for folks looking to extract their data from Braintree. Fivetran has the only reliable connector. Airbyte has a Braintree connector but it's fatally flawed and unusable (see GitHub issues for the connector). Braintree offers a several SDKs that wrap their REST APIs but they're constructed in such a way to prevent all data from being extracted - usually a 10,000 record limit. The Braintree REST API itself isn't even documented, so using it directly isn't a viable option for most engineers.
