## Requirements
{% note %}
The Wherescape connector is available only in OpenMetadata version 1.6.8 or later.
{% /note %}
To extract Wherescape metadata, we need the batabase connection details where the metadata is stored.
- `API` Permission ( While Creating the User, from Admin -> User )
- To retrieve lineage data, the user must be granted [Component-level permissions ](https://docs.matillion.com/metl/docs/2932106/#component ).
- To enable lineage tracking in Matillion, **Matillion Enterprise Mode** is required. For detailed setup instructions and further information, refer to the official documentation: [Matillion Lineage Documentation ](https://docs.matillion.com/metl/docs/2881895/ ).
