04How it works
How it works in DataMind.
-
Pick CTA Developer APIs.
Open Lake, pick CTA Developer APIs in the source picker and name the connection. Connect Any API opens with a ready prompt that points the AI at the CTA Developer APIs docs.
-
Answer a few questions.
The AI reads the CTA Developer APIs documentation, then asks which credentials you will use, which data to sync (for example train arrivals and bus predictions), 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 CTA Developer APIs data loads into your Lake on your schedule, ready for the Warehouse, DataPrism BI and AI Minds.
