02Data
What you can sync.
- Process groups
- Processor status
- Provenance events
- Bulletins
Load Apache NiFi process groups into your Lake and model it in the Warehouse with the rest of your stack.
Need more? Name any other Apache NiFi data the API returns, and the AI adds it to the connector.
03Credentials
Credentials you will need.
- An access token
- A username and password
Apache NiFi uses an access token or a username and password. You add the credentials once, when the AI asks for them, and it tells you where to create them in Apache Software Foundation if you need help.
04How it works
How it works in DataMind.
-
Pick Apache NiFi.
Open Lake, pick Apache NiFi in the source picker and name the connection. Connect Any API opens with a ready prompt that points the AI at the Apache NiFi API docs.
-
Answer a few questions.
The AI reads the Apache NiFi documentation, then asks which credentials you will use, which data to sync (for example process groups and processor status), whether you want a one-time load or a recurring sync, and which accounts or filters apply.
-
Your data lands in Lake.
It builds the connector, tests it and shows you sample rows. Then Apache NiFi data loads into your Lake on your schedule, ready for the Warehouse, DataPrism BI and AI Minds.
