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