🔌Create a dataset from a connector

Create a dataset from a connector

You already configured a connector, that you want to use in order to retrieve your data. For that:

1. Click on the dataset creation button on from your configured connector

   
2. Make the appropriate configuration in order to retrieve the data. Refer to your connector documentation in order to setup the configuration

3. Validate the configuration

4. Prepare your data thanks to our no-code transformation tool YouPrep™ (know more about YouPrep here)

   
5. Save your new dataset by clicking on the button "Create" (at the bottom).

6. Give a name to the dataset (the name shouldn't be already used by another dataset), and select the storage type between storing it in Toucan, or having it as LIVE data.

7. Click on "Save" to save your dataset. If you store the dataset in Toucan, you also canto "Save and refresh" the dataset in order to make it available to use

When making the configuration in order to retrieve the appropriate data, note that you can refer to variables (more on variables in this page) instead of giving a fixed value.
