This page outlines the steps to connect AWS App Studio to your Connect AI account.

​
Prerequisites

Before you connect, you must first do the following:
  • Connect a data source to your Connect AI account. See Sources for more information.
  • Add a workspace to Workspaces.
  • Add assets to your workspace.
  • Generate a Personal Access Token (PAT) on the Settings page. Copy this down, as it acts as your password during authentication.

​
Connect to Connect AI via OpenAPI

To establish a connection from AWS App Studio to Connect AI via OpenAPI, follow these steps.
1
In Workspaces in Connect AI, select a workspace and download the OpenAPI specification for the workspace. See OpenAPI for more information.
You must use OpenAPI version 3.0.
2
Log in to AWS App Studio.
3
Open the Admin hub.
4
Click Create Connector.
5
In the Select a connector page, select OpenAPI Connector.

In the OpenAPI Connector Configuration page, configure the following:
  • Name—enter a name of your choice for the connection.
  • Description—if desired, enter a description for the connection.
  • Base URL—the URL of the OpenAPI Specification file.
  • Authentication method—select Basic.
  • Username—enter your Connect AI username. This is displayed in the top-right corner of the Connect AI interface. For example, test@cdata.com.
  • Password—enter the PAT you generated on the Settings page.
  • OpenAPI Specification file—import the OpenAPI Specification file you downloaded from Connect AI.
7
Save the connector.
