π€ Who can do this? You will need your Soda Cloud administrator to complete these steps β you may not have access yourself. You will also need to scan your datasets using the latest version of Soda Library or migrate from Soda Core to Soda Library to ensure the best possible experience in Atlan. Associated checks for datasets scanned using an older version of Soda Library may be unavailable or missing the relationship with datasets in Atlan.
Atlan supports the API authentication method for fetching metadata from Soda. This method uses an API key ID and API secret to fetch metadata.
Create an API key
πͺ Did you know? Atlan does not make any API requests or queries that will update the objects in your Soda instance.
You will need to create an API key in Soda for integration with Atlan.
To create an API key for crawling Soda:
- Log in to your Soda Cloud instance as an Admin.
- In the top right of your Soda Cloud account, click on your avatar, and from the dropdown, click Profile.
- Under your profile name, click the API Keys tab.
- On the API Keys page, click the + button to generate a new API key.
- In the API Keys dialog, enter the following details:
- For Description, enter a meaningful description.
- For Organization, enter the name of your organization.
- Click Create to finish setup.
- From the corresponding screen, copy the API Key ID and API Key Secret and store them in a secure location.
π¨ Careful! The API secret cannot be retrieved later.
