--- title: Run the Glue Pipeline Connector Externally slug: /connectors/pipeline/glue-pipeline/yaml --- {% connectorDetailsHeader name="Glue" stage="PROD" platform="OpenMetadata" availableFeatures=["Pipelines", "Pipeline Status", "Usage", "Lineage"] unavailableFeatures=["Owners", "Tags"] / %} In this section, we provide guides and references to use the Glue connector. Configure and schedule Glue metadata and profiler workflows from the OpenMetadata UI: - [Requirements](#requirements) - [Metadata Ingestion](#metadata-ingestion) {% partial file="/v1.6/connectors/external-ingestion-deployment.md" /%} ## Requirements The Glue connector ingests metadata through AWS [Boto3](https://boto3.amazonaws.com/v1/documentation/api/latest/reference/services/glue.html) Client. We will ingest Workflows, its jobs and their run status. The user must have the following permissions for the ingestion to run successfully: - `glue:ListWorkflows` - `glue:GetWorkflow` - `glue:GetJobRuns` ### Python Requirements {% partial file="/v1.6/connectors/python-requirements.md" /%} To run the Glue ingestion, you will need to install: ```bash pip3 install "openmetadata-ingestion[glue]" ``` ## Metadata Ingestion All connectors are defined as JSON Schemas. [Here](https://github.com/open-metadata/OpenMetadata/blob/main/openmetadata-spec/src/main/resources/json/schema/entity/services/connections/database/glueConnection.json) you can find the structure to create a connection to Glue. 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](https://github.com/open-metadata/OpenMetadata/blob/main/openmetadata-spec/src/main/resources/json/schema/metadataIngestion/workflow.json) ### 1. Define the YAML Config This is a sample config for Glue: {% codePreview %} {% codeInfoContainer %} #### Source Configuration - Service Connection {% partial file="/v1.7/connectors/yaml/common/aws-config-def.md" /%} {% partial file="/v1.6/connectors/yaml/pipeline/source-config-def.md" /%} {% partial file="/v1.6/connectors/yaml/ingestion-sink-def.md" /%} {% partial file="/v1.6/connectors/yaml/workflow-config-def.md" /%} {% /codeInfoContainer %} {% codeBlock fileName="filename.yaml" %} ```yaml {% isCodeBlock=true %} source: type: gluepipeline serviceName: local_glue serviceConnection: config: type: GluePipeline awsConfig: ``` {% partial file="/v1.7/connectors/yaml/common/aws-config.md" /%} {% partial file="/v1.6/connectors/yaml/pipeline/source-config.md" /%} {% partial file="/v1.6/connectors/yaml/ingestion-sink.md" /%} {% partial file="/v1.6/connectors/yaml/workflow-config.md" /%} {% /codeBlock %} {% /codePreview %} {% partial file="/v1.6/connectors/yaml/ingestion-cli.md" /%}
