02Data
What you can sync.
- Documents
- Collections
- Tables
- Vector search results
Load Astra DB documents into your Lake and model it in the Warehouse with the rest of your stack.
Need more? Name any other Astra DB data the API returns, and the AI adds it to the connector.
03Credentials
Credentials you will need.
- An access token
Astra DB uses an access token. You add the credentials once, when the AI asks for them, and it tells you where to create them in IBM (DataStax) if you need help.
04How it works
How it works in DataMind.
-
Pick Astra DB.
Open Lake, pick Astra DB in the source picker and name the connection. Connect Any API opens with a ready prompt that points the AI at the Astra DB API docs.
-
Answer a few questions.
The AI reads the Astra DB documentation, then asks which credentials you will use, which data to sync (for example documents and collections), 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 Astra DB data loads into your Lake on your schedule, ready for the Warehouse, DataPrism BI and AI Minds.
