User Guide

The Kodda User Guide provides detailed descriptions of how to perform all functions necessary to create and operate your data pipeline. See the various help menu options for details on how to perform the following activities.

• Generate a New Mapping: By simply selecting a source database, schema, and/or specific tables or views and a target data store, you can easily generate a new mapping without any programming.

• Edit or Run an Existing Mapping: Once generated, you can run your mapping as is, or edit it to customize various settings.

• Design Workflow: Combine multiple mappings into workflows to automate your entire pipeline.

• Schedule Mapping or Workflow: Schedule an individual mapping or an entire workflow to run periodically, using either the built-in scheduling options or cron syntax. There is also a command line option and a REST API if you prefer to schedule your jobs with a third-party scheduling tool.

• Monitor Map History: Full history of all maps run is available, with links to detailed log files.

• Monitor Workflow History: Full history of all workflows run is available, with links to detailed log files.

• Browse Data: Querying data via SQL directly allows you to quickly profile the data in all of your sources and targets. From here you can export data into csv files or quickly generate a mapping based on your query.

• Upload File: Upload a delimited file directly to your target. Kodda will automatically parse the file, detect the delimiters and make recommendations on the column types to use in the target.

• Manage Users: Create, add or delete users.

• Manage Connections: Create, add or delete data source and target connections.
