Create a Data Source: immuta datasource save

  1. Add your remote database's connection information in a valid YAML file for the V2 API. Additional payload examples for creating data sources can be found here:

    connectionKey: 'a connection key'
    connection:
      ssl: true
      port: 5432
      hostname: immuta.db.com
      database: public
      schema: public
      username: user
      password: '{{EnvVar "myPassword"}}'
      handler: Snowflake
  2. Run immuta datasource save <filepath> [--wait int] [--dryRun], referencing the file you just created. The options you can specify include

    • -d or --dryRun: No updates will actually be made to the data source(s).

    • -h or --help: Get more information about the command.

    • -w or --wait int: Specify how long to wait for data source creation.

Example

The following example illustrates a user saving an updated datasourceInfo.yaml file, first as a dry run and then by specifying that the data sources wait 5 seconds to be created.

$ immuta datasource save test.yml --dryRun
{"dryRun":true,"creating":["Public Credit Accounts","Public Credit Transactions","Public Fake Medical Claims 2017","Public Uciml Census Income Enriched"],"updating":[],"deleting":[],"noChange":[],"detectionRunning":false,"tagsUpdated":false,"connectionString":null}

$ immuta datasource save test.yml --wait 5
{"dryRun":false,"creating":["Public Credit Accounts","Public Credit Transactions","Public Fake Medical Claims 2017","Public Uciml Census Income Enriched"],"updating":[],"deleting":[],"noChange":[],"detectionRunning":false,"tagsUpdated":false,"connectionString":"immuta@snowflake.demo-databases.your.url.com:3306/public"}

  2. To rename one of your data source connection keys, run immuta datasource rename <old connection key> <new connection key>. You can include the -h or --help options to get more information about this command.
