How can I load metadata into Alteryx Connect from HP Vertica?

[Sean56]

Hi.

There is no name of HP Vertica on available list of Alteryx Connect.

Is there someone to have a solution of load metadata from HP Vertica?

If there is no solution, I would be grateful if Alteryx could release a metadata loader of HP Vertica soon.

Best regards,

Sean

Hello Sean,

Alteryx Connect uses Designer to load the metadata into Connect.  HP Vertica is not a validated data source but our Connect team are consistently adding new connectors.  I am sadly not in a position to say whether HP Vertica are on the road map. 

I would suggest posting it on the ideas page so that the product team have more visibility of it.

There is a Connect Metadata Loader SDK if you are interested:

Hello Nick

Thank you for your reply.

I'm going to do PoC of Connect in a few months, so I'm looking for a solution of it ASAP.

But I think it is hard to resolve in a short term.

I'll post my favor on the ideas page and I consider about SDK at the same time.

Best regards,

Sean

Install the HP Vertica ODBC driver and set up a connection.
Open Alteryx Connect Loaders and choose the database loader.

Enter Vertica details: connection, username, password, and schema.
Run the loader to import metadata.
Check the metadata in Alteryx Connect.
