This connector extracts technical metadata from ThoughtSpot using ThoughtSpot REST API v2.
This connector requires a ThoughtSpot Everywhere Edition license to use ThoughtSpot REST API v2. See REST v1 and REST v2 API comparison for more details.
We recommend creating a secret key for the connector.
- Log into your ThoughtSpot instance as an administrator (with the "Can administer ThoughtSpot" privilege).
- Go to
Develop
tab, clickSecurity settings
under Customizations. - Enable
Trusted authentication
. - A
secret_key
for trusted authentication is generated.
Create a YAML config file based on the following template.
base_url: <your_instance_url> # e.g. https://my1.thoughtspot.cloud
user: <user_id>
# If using secret key to authenticate
secret_key: <secret>
# If using password to authenticate
password: <password>
See Output Config for more information.
Follow the Installation instructions to install metaphor-connectors
in your environment (or virtualenv). Make sure to include either all

Run the following command to test the connector locally:

Manually verify the output after the command finishes.
