Use Observe in Okou
Observe API for querying OPAL data and exploring datasets, logs, metrics, traces, alerts, monitors, and APM telemetry.
Once connected, supported Observe actions can become steps in a reusable workflow alongside the other services your team uses. Run the workflow once, on a schedule, or when an event starts it.
What you can do with Observe
- Execute OPAL queries or export worksheet data; these operations can consume tenant compute capacity.
- Read datasets, dataset metadata, dataset graphs, lineage, and attribute statistics.
- Read monitor alerts and alert details.
- Read APM services, environments, RED metrics, and service invocation graphs.
- Read dataset tags and search tag values.
- Read service-account and API-token metadata; token secrets are not returned by read operations.
- Search Observe's built-in documentation without changing tenant state.
- Read a page of results from an already-started OPAL query.
How the Observe connector works
A connected service becomes one permissioned step in the work you hand off.
- 1
Connect Observe
Choose API Token.
- 2
Choose the work
Use only the supported actions your workflow needs.
- 3
Run it your way
Start it once, schedule it, or attach an event trigger.
Connect Observe securely
Use the connection method that fits your account and grant only the access the workflow needs.
- API Token
Connector access is controlled per service and per action, so a workflow does not need broader access than the work you ask it to do.
