Connect to Oracle AI Data Platform

Connect to an Oracle AI Data Platform data source to visualize data.

Oracle Analytics connections to AI Data Platform Workbench instances only support one catalog per connection. You need to create additional connections to use more than one catalog.

Before you start, in your Oracle AI Data Platform Workbench instance, get a connection configuration file. Navigate to your workspace and click Compute, click the cluster you want to connect to Oracle Analytics, then in the Connection details tab, click the Download icon underneath the Oracle Analytics Cloud logo. A config.json file is downloaded to your machine.

1. On the Oracle Analytics home page, click Create then click Connection.
2. Click Oracle AI Data Platform.
3. Enter a name and description for your connection.
4. In Location, specify where to save the connection. To share the connection with other users, save it in /Shared Folders.
5. In Oracle Analytics Cloud, for Connection Details, click Select, navigate to your config.json file, and click Open.
6. Select API Key as the authentication type.
7. Under Public API Key, click Generate, then Copy.
8. In OCI, add an API Key.
   1. In OCI, click the user icon, then click User Settings.
   2. In My profile, click Tokens and keys, then click Add API key.
   3. Select Paste a public key, and copy in the key that you generated in Step 7, then click Add.
   Wait two to three minutes for the API key to synchronize.
9. In Catalog, specify the Catalog name to be used in your datasets.
   If the Catalog list doesn't load and you see the alert message "User does not have sufficient privileges to perform the operation", wait a little longer for the API key to synchronize.
10. Click Save.
11. Test your new connection by creating a dataset.
