Configuring this Kit for use

Variables

In this Kit, there are two variables that are used to make for dynamic use of target configuration. 

  • {Database_GA} is used in all Target configurations and queries as the target database name.
  • {GA_Failure_Group} is used as the alert email address(es) for when a river fails (optional).

Go to the Variables menu on the left side navigation bar and create variables for Database_GA and GA_Failure_Group. Then fill in the values as the Databricks database where you would like the data to land and the email address(es) to which you would like the failure emails sent.

Connections

Kits are imported with ‘blank’ source and target connections. In order to use the kit, you have two options:

  • Swap out blank connections with existing connections
  • Add credentials to the blank connections that come with the imported Kit
