What you can sync.
- Catalog entities
- Components
- Apis
- Systems
- Groups
Report on Backstage catalog entities in DataPrism BI and let an AI Mind answer delivery questions in plain words.
Need more? Name any other Backstage data the API returns, and the AI adds it to the connector.
03Credentials
Credentials you will need.
- An access token
Backstage uses an access token. You add the credentials once, when the AI asks for them, and it tells you where to create them in Spotify (CNCF) if you need help.
04How it works
How it works in DataMind.
-
Pick Backstage.
Open Lake, pick Backstage in the source picker and name the connection. Connect Any API opens with a ready prompt that points the AI at the Backstage API docs.
-
Answer a few questions.
The AI reads the Backstage documentation, then asks which credentials you will use, which data to sync (for example catalog entities and components), 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 Backstage data loads into your Lake on your schedule, ready for the Warehouse, DataPrism BI and AI Minds.
