- An API key
Open States 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 Plural Policy if you need help.
04How it works
How it works in DataMind.
-
Pick Open States API.
Open Lake, pick Open States API in the source picker and name the connection. Connect Any API opens with a ready prompt that points the AI at the Open States API docs.
-
Answer a few questions.
The AI reads the Open States API documentation, then asks which credentials you will use, which data to sync (for example bills and legislators), 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 Open States API data loads into your Lake on your schedule, ready for the Warehouse, DataPrism BI and AI Minds.
