In this section, we provide guides and references to use the Cassandra connector.
Configure and schedule Cassandra metadata workflows from the OpenMetadata UI:
- [Requirements](#requirements)
- [Metadata Ingestion](#metadata-ingestion)
{% partial file="/v1.7/connectors/ingestion-modes-tiles.md" variables={yamlPath: "/connectors/database/cassandra/yaml"} /%}
## Requirements
To extract metadata using the Cassandra connector, ensure the user in the connection has the following permissions:
- Read Permissions: The ability to query tables and perform data extraction.
- Schema Operations: Access to list and describe keyspaces and tables.
## Metadata Ingestion

#### Connection Details
- **Username**: Username to connect to Cassandra. This user must have the necessary permissions to perform metadata extraction and table queries.
- **Host Port**: When using the `cassandra` connecion schema, the hostPort parameter specifies the host and port of the Cassandra. This should be specified as a string in the format `hostname:port`. E.g., `localhost:9042`.- **databaseName**: Optional name to give to the database in OpenMetadata. If left blank, we will use default as the database name.
**Auth Type**: Following authentication types are supported:
1. **Basic Authentication**:
We'll use the user credentials to connect to Cassandra
- **password**: Password of the user.
2. **DataStax Astra DB Configuration**:
Configuration for connecting to DataStax Astra DB in the cloud.
- **connectTimeout**: Timeout in seconds for establishing new connections to Cassandra.
- **requestTimeout**: Timeout in seconds for individual Cassandra requests.
