iNaturalist API

by iNaturalist

Citizen-science biodiversity API for species observations, identifications, taxa, projects and places.

02Data

What you can sync.

Join iNaturalist API observations with your own figures, so plans and reports carry the market context they need.

Need more? Name any other iNaturalist API data the API returns, and the AI adds it to the connector.

03Credentials

Public endpoints answer without credentials; for the rest, iNaturalist API uses OAuth 2.0 (client ID, client secret, refresh token).

04How it works

Pick iNaturalist API.

Open Lake, pick iNaturalist API in the source picker and name the connection. Connect Any API opens with a ready prompt that points the AI at the iNaturalist API docs.
Answer a few questions.

The AI reads the iNaturalist API documentation, then asks which credentials you will use, which data to sync (for example observations and taxa), 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 iNaturalist API data loads into your Lake on your schedule, ready for the Warehouse, DataPrism BI and AI Minds.
