Credentials you will need.
- AWS access keys
AWS CloudTrail uses AWS access keys. You add the credentials once, when the AI asks for them, and it tells you where to create them in Amazon Web Services if you need help.
04How it works
How it works in DataMind.
-
Pick AWS CloudTrail.
Open Lake, pick AWS CloudTrail in the source picker and name the connection. Connect Anything opens with a ready prompt that points the AI at the AWS CloudTrail API docs.
-
Answer a few questions.
The AI reads the AWS CloudTrail documentation, then asks which credentials you will use, which data to sync (for example management events and data events), whether you want a one-time load or a recurring sync, and which accounts or filters apply.
-
Your data lands in Lake.
The connector agent writes a Python connector for AWS CloudTrail, tests it against the live API and shows you sample rows. Then the data loads into your Lake on your schedule, ready for the Warehouse, DataPrism BI and AI Minds.
