Logging in allows CloudQuery to authenticate your access to the CloudQuery Hub and monitor usage for billing purposes. Data synced with CloudQuery remains private to your environment and is not shared with our servers or any third parties.
What data does CloudQuery have access to?
CloudQuery accesses only the metadata and configurations of your cloud resources that you specify without touching sensitive data or workloads.
How is CloudQuery priced?
CloudQuery offers flexible pricing based on the number of cloud accounts and usage. Visit our pricing page for detailed plans.
Is there a free version of CloudQuery?
Yes, CloudQuery offers a free plan that includes basic features, perfect for smaller teams or personal use. More details can be found on our pricing page.
How do I authenticate the Airtable source integration?
In order to use CloudQuery with your Airtable data and sync it to MongoDB, you’ll need to create a personal access token for the Airtable API. Full details on how to do this can be found on the Airtable website.
How does the Airtable API work?
Airtable provides customised API documentation for each of your bases. To find out more about how the API interacts with any particular Airtable base and the data that you will be able to sync to MongoDB, log in to Airtable and navigate to this page to view your customized documentation.
Which Airtable fields can I sync to MongoDB?
Airtable’s customised API documentation provides a list of fields that can be synced from any particular base and the details that you will need to set up a sync from Airtable to MongoDB. Simply sign in to your Airtable account and visit this page to review the details.
How long will it take to sync my data from Airtable to MongoDB?
Airtable’s API is limited to a maximum of 5 requests per second. This is the primary limitation to the speed of any sync from Airtable to MongoDB.
Can I specify the batch size when syncing from Airtable to MongoDB?
Yes, by default, CloudQuery will sync to MongoDB in batches of 1,000 bytes but if you want to use a different batch size then you can specify this in the batch_size and batch_size_bytes fields.
Where can I store the MongoDB connection string?
For testing purposes, you can hardcode the MongoDB connection string into the specification. However, we highly recommend that you use environment variable substitution when you move the Airtable to MongoDB sync into production as this will help to protect the security of your credentials.
