In this section, we provide guides and references to use the Trino connector.
Configure and schedule Trino metadata and profiler workflows from the OpenMetadata UI:
If you don't want to use the OpenMetadata Ingestion container to configure the workflows via the UI, then you can check the following docs to connect using Airflow SDK or with the CLI.
Requirements
OpenMetadata 0.12 or later To deploy OpenMetadata, check the Deployment guides.
To run the Ingestion via the UI you'll need to use the OpenMetadata Ingestion Container, which comes shipped with custom Airflow plugins to handle the workflow deployment.
Note
To ingest metadata from the Trino source, the user must have select privileges for the following tables.
information_schema.schemata
information_schema.columns
information_schema.tables
information_schema.views
system.metadata.table_comments
Metadata Ingestion
1. Visit the Services Page
The first step is ingesting the metadata from your sources. Under Settings, you will find a Services link an external source system to OpenMetadata. Once a service is created, it can be used to configure metadata, usage, and profiler workflows.
To visit the Services page, select Services from the Settings menu.

Find Services under the Settings menu
2. Create a New Service
Click on the Add New Service button to start the Service creation.

Add a new Service from the Services page
3. Select the Service Type
Select Trino as the service type and click Next.

Select your service from the list
4. Name and Describe your Service
Provide a name and description for your service as illustrated below.
Service Name
OpenMetadata uniquely identifies services by their Service Name. Provide a name that distinguishes your deployment from other services, including the other {connector} services that you might be ingesting metadata from.

Provide a Name and description for your Service
5. Configure the Service Connection
In this step, we will configure the connection settings required for this connector. Please follow the instructions below to ensure that you've configured the connector to read from your trino service as desired.

Configure the service connection by filling the form
Once the credentials have been added, click on Test Connection
and Save
the changes.

Test the connection and save the Service
Connection Options
- Username: Specify the User to connect to Trino. It should have enough privileges to read all the metadata.
- Password: Password to connect to Trino.
- Host and Port: Enter the fully qualified hostname and port number for your Trino deployment in the Host and Port field.
- Catalog: Trino offers a catalog feature where all the databases are stored. (Providing the Catalog is not mandatory from 0.12.2 or greater versions)
- DatabaseSchema: DatabaseSchema of the data source. This is optional parameter, if you would like to restrict the metadata reading to a single databaseSchema. When left blank, OpenMetadata Ingestion attempts to scan all the databaseSchema.
- Connection Options (Optional): Enter the details for any additional connection options that can be sent to Trino during the connection. These details must be added as Key-Value pairs.
- Connection Arguments (Optional): Enter the details for any additional connection arguments such as security or protocol configs that can be sent to Trino during the connection. These details must be added as Key-Value pairs.
- In case you are using Single-Sign-On (SSO) for authentication, add the
authenticator
details in the Connection Arguments as a Key-Value pair as follows:"authenticator" : "sso_login_url"
- In case you authenticate with SSO using an external browser popup, then add the
authenticator
details in the Connection Arguments as a Key-Value pair as follows:"authenticator" : "externalbrowser"
- In case you are using Single-Sign-On (SSO) for authentication, add the
6. Configure Metadata Ingestion
In this step we will configure the metadata ingestion pipeline, Please follow the instructions below

Configure Metadata Ingestion Page
Metadata Ingestion Options
- Name: This field refers to the name of ingestion pipeline, you can customize the name or use the generated name.
- Database Filter Pattern (Optional): Use to database filter patterns to control whether or not to include database as part of metadata ingestion.
- Include: Explicitly include databases by adding a list of comma-separated regular expressions to the Include field. OpenMetadata will include all databases with names matching one or more of the supplied regular expressions. All other databases will be excluded.
- Exclude: Explicitly exclude databases by adding a list of comma-separated regular expressions to the Exclude field. OpenMetadata will exclude all databases with names matching one or more of the supplied regular expressions. All other databases will be included.
- Schema Filter Pattern (Optional): Use to schema filter patterns to control whether or not to include schemas as part of metadata ingestion.
- Include: Explicitly include schemas by adding a list of comma-separated regular expressions to the Include field. OpenMetadata will include all schemas with names matching one or more of the supplied regular expressions. All other schemas will be excluded.
- Exclude: Explicitly exclude schemas by adding a list of comma-separated regular expressions to the Exclude field. OpenMetadata will exclude all schemas with names matching one or more of the supplied regular expressions. All other schemas will be included.
- Table Filter Pattern (Optional): Use to table filter patterns to control whether or not to include tables as part of metadata ingestion.
- Include: Explicitly include tables by adding a list of comma-separated regular expressions to the Include field. OpenMetadata will include all tables with names matching one or more of the supplied regular expressions. All other tables will be excluded.
- Exclude: Explicitly exclude tables by adding a list of comma-separated regular expressions to the Exclude field. OpenMetadata will exclude all tables with names matching one or more of the supplied regular expressions. All other tables will be included.
- Include views (toggle): Set the Include views toggle to control whether or not to include views as part of metadata ingestion.
- Include tags (toggle): Set the Include tags toggle to control whether or not to include tags as part of metadata ingestion.
- Enable Debug Log (toggle): Set the Enable Debug Log toggle to set the default log level to debug, these logs can be viewed later in Airflow.
- Mark Deleted Tables (toggle): Set the Mark Deleted Tables toggle to flag tables as soft-deleted if they are not present anymore in the source system.
- Mark Deleted Tables from Filter Only (toggle): Set the Mark Deleted Tables from Filter Only toggle to flag tables as soft-deleted if they are not present anymore within the filtered schema or database only. This flag is useful when you have more than one ingestion pipelines. For example if you have a schema
- Auto Tag PII(toggle): Auto PII tagging checks for column name to mark PII Sensitive/NonSensitive tag
SSL Configuration
In order to integrate SSL in the Metadata Ingestion Config, the user will have to add the SSL config under connectionArguments which is placed in source.
SSL Modes
There are couple of types of SSL modes that redshift supports which can be added to ConnectionArguments, they are as follows:
- false: In order to disable SSL verification, set the
verify
parameter toFalse
. - \<path-to-crt>: To use self-signed certificates, specify a path to the certificate in
verify
parameter. More details can be found in the Python requests library documentation.
7. Schedule the Ingestion and Deploy
Scheduling can be set up at an hourly, daily, or weekly cadence. The timezone is in UTC. Select a Start Date to schedule for ingestion. It is optional to add an End Date.
Review your configuration settings. If they match what you intended, click Deploy to create the service and schedule metadata ingestion.
If something doesn't look right, click the Back button to return to the appropriate step and change the settings as needed.

Schedule the Ingestion Pipeline and Deploy
After configuring the workflow, you can click on Deploy to create the pipeline.
8. View the Ingestion Pipeline
Once the workflow has been successfully deployed, you can view the Ingestion Pipeline running from the Service Page.

View the Ingestion Pipeline from the Service Page
9. Workflow Deployment Error
If there were any errors during the workflow deployment process, the Ingestion Pipeline Entity will still be created, but no workflow will be present in the Ingestion container.
You can then edit the Ingestion Pipeline and Deploy it again.

Edit and Deploy the Ingestion Pipeline
From the Connection tab, you can also Edit the Service if needed.
