All connectors are defined as JSON Schemas. Here you can find the structure to create a connection to Datalake.
In order to create and run a Metadata Ingestion workflow, we will follow the steps to create a YAML configuration able to connect to the source, process the Entities if needed, and reach the OpenMetadata server.
The workflow is modeled around the following JSON Schema.
## 1. Define the YAML Config
This is a sample config for Datalake using AWS S3:
```yaml
source:
type: datalake
serviceName: local_datalake
serviceConnection:
config:
type: Datalake
configSource:
securityConfig:
awsAccessKeyId: aws access key id
awsSecretAccessKey: aws secret access key
awsRegion: aws region
bucketName: bucket name
prefix: prefix
sourceConfig:
config:
tableFilterPattern:
includes:
- ''
sink:
type: metadata-rest
config: {}
workflowConfig:
openMetadataServerConfig:
hostPort: http://localhost:8585/api
authProvider: no-auth
```
#### Source Configuration - Source Config using AWS S3
The `sourceConfig` is defined [here](https://github.com/open-metadata/OpenMetadata/blob/main/catalog-rest-service/src/main/resources/json/schema/metadataIngestion/databaseServiceMetadataPipeline.json).
* **awsAccessKeyId**: Enter your secure access key ID for your DynamoDB connection. The specified key ID should be authorized to read all databases you want to include in the metadata ingestion workflow.
* **awsSecretAccessKey**: Enter the Secret Access Key (the passcode key pair to the key ID from above).
* **awsRegion**: Specify the region in which your DynamoDB is located. This setting is required even if you have configured a local AWS profile.
* **schemaFilterPattern** and **tableFilternPattern**: Note that the `schemaFilterPattern` and `tableFilterPattern` both support regex as `include` or `exclude`. E.g.,
The `sourceConfig` is defined [here](https://github.com/open-metadata/OpenMetadata/blob/main/catalog-rest-service/src/main/resources/json/schema/metadataIngestion/databaseServiceMetadataPipeline.json).
* **type**: Credentials type, e.g. `service_account`.
* **schemaFilterPattern** and **tableFilternPattern**: Note that the `schemaFilterPattern` and `tableFilterPattern` both support regex as `include` or `exclude`. E.g.,
