Airbyte Embedded​

Airbyte Embedded provides product and software teams the tools and services to move data to provide context for AI applications. Embedded provides the following:

Once your Organization is enabled via Airbyte Embedded, you can begin onboarding customers via the Embed Widget. The Get Started Guide walks you through how to configure a React.js serverless app for the onboarding app. You can download the code for the onboarding app via GitHub. If you prefer to develop in Node.js, please use this sample app instead. Regardless of web framework you choose, the pre-requisites required for initial set up are the same.

Proxy Requests​

API Sources​

warning

The Airbyte Proxy feature is in alpha, which means it' still in active development and may include backward-incompatbile changes. Share feedback and requests directly with us.

Airbyte's Authentication Proxy enables you to submit authenticated requests to external APIs. It can be both to fetch and write data.

Here's an example of how to query an external API with the proxy:

curl -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer {AIRBYTE_ACCESS_TOKEN}' \
-d {"method": "GET", "url": "https://api.stripe.com/v1/balance", "headers": {"additional_header_key": "value"}}' \
'https://api.airbyte.ai/api/v1/sonar/apis/{SOURCE_ID}/request'

Here's an example of a POST:

curl -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer {AIRBYTE_ACCESS_TOKEN}' \
-d {"method": "POST", "url": "https://api.stripe.com/v1/balance", "body": {"key": "value"}}' \
'https://api.airbyte.ai/api/v1/sonar/apis/{SOURCE_ID}/request'

Airbyte's Authentication Proxy can be used to authenticate using a Source configured through the Widget.

The following integrations are currently supported. More will follow shortly:

  • Stripe

File Storage Sources​

Airbyte's File Storage Proxy enables you to submit authenticated requests to file storage sources. It can be used to list or fetch files.

Here's an example of how to list files:

curl -X GET -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer {AIRBYTE_ACCESS_TOKEN}' \
'https://api.airbyte.ai/api/v1/sonar/files/{SOURCE_ID}/list/path/to/directory/or/file/prefix'

Here's an example of how to fetch a file:

curl -X GET -H 'Content-Type: application/octet-stream' \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer {AIRBYTE_ACCESS_TOKEN}' \
-H 'Range: bytes=0-1048575' \
'https://api.airbyte.ai/api/v1/sonar/files/{SOURCE_ID}/get/path/to/file'

For small files, you may omit the Range header.

The following integrations are currently supported. More will follow shortly:
