Data Sources

Operations for managing data sources including listing, updating, enabling, disabling, and status monitoring

Each cloud provider will have one or more associated data sources. Each represents a discrete instance of a service that Veza connects to for the discovery and extraction of authorization metadata.

The provider under /providers/aws/{id}, for example, may have an associated EC2 data source, represented as:

{
  "id": "6961b032-3fd7-4baa-a230-146d1b70ec27",
  "name": "AWS EC2 (527398259632)",
  "datasource_type": "EXTRACTOR",
  "agent_type": "AWS_EC2",
  "status": "SUCCESS",
  "provider_id": "cd0cf102-e86c-4599-9cbe-64d2c6b83236",
  "path": "AWS/ec2",
  "state": "ENABLED",
  "effective_state": "ENABLED",
  "datasource_config": null,
  "created_at": "2021-10-26T07:10:38Z",
  "updated_at": "2021-10-26T07:10:38Z",
  "synced_at": "2022-01-13T20:53:23Z",
  "parsed_at": "2022-01-13T20:53:29Z"
}

You can use the API to get or update data source records, or enable and disable individual data sources.

Disabling a data source will cancel all pending extractions.
