For cloud connectivity with Redox, you decide which cloud provider and cloud product(s) to use. Then, you'll need to create a cloud destination in your Redox organization.
You'll need to perform some steps in your cloud product(s) and some in Redox. You can perform Redox setup in our dashboard or with the Redox Platform API.
This article is for this combination of cloud products:
- Microsoft Azure
- Fabric
or
- Microsoft Azure
- Fabric
- Snowflake
OneLake and Fabric
- Navigate to the Microsoft Azure dashboard and log in. Review Azure's quickstart guide to get started.
- Create an application through Azure Entra. Review Azure's help article. This is where you'll get a client ID and tenant ID, which you'll need for Redox setup later.
- Create a new secret for your application. This is where you'll get client secret value, which you'll need for Redox setup later.
- Navigate to the Fabric dashboard and log in.
- Create a new workspace, or open an existing workspace you want to use for integrating with Redox.
- Within the workspace, create a lakehouse, or open an existing lakehouse you want to use for hosting data.
- Add Contributor permissions for the application you previously created in the Microsoft Azure console.
Next, create a cloud destination in your Redox organization. This destination will be where your data is pushed to.
- For the select destination step, follow the instructions for creating a cloud destination.
- From the Product type field, select Databricks or Snowflake if you're using one of those cloud products with Fabric. Your Fabric settings will be ingested with the additional cloud product. Select Fabric if you're not also using Databricks or Snowflake.
- For the configure destination step, populate these fields. Then click the Next button.
- Workspace name: Enter the name of the workspace you created in Fabric. Locate this value in the Fabric dashboard.
- Lakehouse name: Enter the name of the lakehouse you created in Fabric. Locate this value in the Fabric workspace configuration.
- File name prefix (optional): Enter any prefix you want prepended to new files when they're created in the Fabric lakehouse. Add / to put the files in a subdirectory. For example, redox/ puts all the files in the redox directory.
- For the auth credential step, either a drop-down list of existing auth credentials displays or a new auth credential form opens. Learn how to create an auth credential for OAuth 2.0 2-legged.Existing or new auth credential
- For the verify step, follow the instructions for verifying a destination.
- In your terminal, prepare the /v1/authcredentials request.
- Specify these values in the request.
- Locate the clientId and clientSecret value in the Microsoft Azure dashboard.Example: Create auth credential for Azure + Fabricjson
- You should get a successful response with details for the new auth credential.
- In your terminal, prepare the /v1/environments/{environmentId}/destinations request.
- Specify these values in the request.
- Set authCredential to the auth credential ID from the response you received in step #4.
- Populate cloudProviderSettings with the settings below (adjust values based on the workspace and lakehouse setup in the Fabric configuration).
- The fileNamePrefix is optional, and if added, it gets prepended to the created file path in the Fabric lakehouse.Product ID for multiple cloud products with AzureExample: Values for Azure + Fabric or Snowflake cloudProviderSettingsjson
- You should get a successful response with details for the new destination for Microsoft Azure and Fabric or Snowflake.
- Your new destination will now be able to receive messages. We push data to the lakehouse storage as a JSON file, which is ingested into Microsoft Azure.
