02Data
What you can sync.
- Datasets
- Resources
- Organizations
- Datastore records
Load CKAN datasets on a schedule and keep every release in your Lake for trends over time.
Need more? Name any other CKAN data the API returns, and the AI adds it to the connector.
03Credentials
Credentials you will need.
- No credentials
- An API key
Public endpoints answer without credentials; for the rest, CKAN uses an API key.
04How it works
How it works in DataMind.
-
Pick CKAN.
Open Lake, pick CKAN in the source picker and name the connection. Connect Any API opens with a ready prompt that points the AI at the CKAN API docs.
-
Answer a few questions.
The AI reads the CKAN documentation, then asks which credentials you will use, which data to sync (for example datasets and resources), 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 CKAN data loads into your Lake on your schedule, ready for the Warehouse, DataPrism BI and AI Minds.
