EIA Open Data API uses an API key. You add the credentials once, when the AI asks for them, and it tells you where to create them in US Energy Information Administration if you need help.
04How it works
How it works in DataMind.
-
Pick EIA Open Data API.
Open Lake, pick EIA Open Data API in the source picker and name the connection. Connect Any API opens with a ready prompt that points the AI at the EIA Open Data API docs.
-
Answer a few questions.
The AI reads the EIA Open Data API documentation, then asks which credentials you will use, which data to sync (for example electricity data and petroleum prices), 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 EIA Open Data API data loads into your Lake on your schedule, ready for the Warehouse, DataPrism BI and AI Minds.
