Dataiku DSS

Use the Dataiku DSS API

Actions364

Overview

This node integrates with the Dataiku DSS API, allowing users to perform a wide range of operations on Dataiku DSS resources. Specifically for the Recipe resource and the Create Recipe operation, it enables creating new recipes within a specified project in Dataiku DSS.

Use cases include automating recipe creation as part of data workflows, integrating recipe management into broader automation pipelines, or programmatically managing recipes based on dynamic inputs.

For example, you might use this node to create a new data transformation recipe in a project automatically when new data arrives, or to script bulk creation of recipes across multiple projects.

Properties

Name Meaning
Project Key The unique key identifying the Dataiku DSS project where the recipe will be created.
Request Body JSON object containing the details of the recipe to create. This should follow the API's expected recipe creation schema.

Output

The node outputs the response from the Dataiku DSS API after attempting to create the recipe. The output is a JSON object representing the newly created recipe or an error message if the creation failed.

  • The json field contains the parsed JSON response from the API.
  • If the API returns binary data (not typical for recipe creation), it would be provided in the binary field, but this operation primarily deals with JSON responses.

Dependencies

  • Requires an active connection to a Dataiku DSS instance.
  • Requires valid API credentials (an API key) for authentication with the Dataiku DSS server.
  • The node expects the Dataiku DSS server URL and user API key to be configured in the credentials.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing Credentials Error: If the API key credential is not set or invalid, the node will throw an error indicating missing credentials.
  • Project Key Required: The node requires the "Project Key" property; omitting it will cause an error.
  • Request Body Format: The request body must be a valid JSON object matching the Dataiku DSS API schema for recipe creation. Invalid JSON or incorrect schema will result in API errors.
  • API Errors: Any HTTP or API errors returned by Dataiku DSS will be surfaced as node errors with messages prefixed by "Error calling Dataiku DSS API".
  • Network Issues: Ensure that the Dataiku DSS server URL is reachable from the n8n environment.
