In this section, we provide guides and references to use the Hive connector.

Configure and schedule Hive metadata and profiler workflows from the OpenMetadata UI:
- [Requirements](#requirements)
- [Metadata Ingestion](#metadata-ingestion)
- [Data Profiler](/connectors/ingestion/workflows/profiler)
- [Data Quality](/connectors/ingestion/workflows/data-quality)
- [dbt Integration](/connectors/ingestion/workflows/dbt)

## Requirements

{%inlineCallout icon="description" bold="OpenMetadata 0.12 or later" href="/deployment"%}
To deploy OpenMetadata, check the Deployment guides.
{%/inlineCallout%}

### Metadata

To extract metadata, the user used in the connection needs to be able to perform `SELECT`, `SHOW`, and `DESCRIBE` operations in the database/schema where the metadata needs to be extracted from.

### Profiler & Data Quality
Executing the profiler workflow or data quality tests, will require the user to have `SELECT` permission on the tables/schemas where the profiler/tests will be executed. More information on the profiler workflow setup can be found [here](/connectors/ingestion/workflows/profiler) and data quality tests [here](/connectors/ingestion/workflows/data-quality).
