# Airbyte Connector | OpenMetadata Pipeline Integration

> Connect Airbyte data pipelines to OpenMetadata for comprehensive data lineage tracking, metadata discovery, and pipeline monitoring. Setup guide included.

    <p>
      To ingest metadata from your sources, you need to create a service connection.
      The service connects your source system with OpenMetadata. Once you create
      a service, you can use it to configure your ingestion workflows.<br />
      <br />
      To create a service connection and ingest your metadata, follow the steps below:
    </p>
      <Steps>
      <Step title="Select the Service">
        <ol>
          <li>
            On the left navigation bar, click <strong>Settings</strong>.
          </li>
          <li>
            On the next page, click <strong>Services</strong>, and then select the service.

          </li>
        </ol>
      </Step>

      <Step title="Create a New Service">
        To add a new service connection, click <strong>Add New Service</strong>.
        <img src="/public/images/connectors/create-new-service.png" alt="Create a new Service" />
      </Step>

      <Step title="Select the Connector">
        Select <strong>{connector}</strong> as the service type and click <strong>Next</strong>.

        {selectServicePath && <img src={selectServicePath} alt="Select Service" />}
      </Step>

      <Step title="Name and Describe the Service">
        Enter a unique <strong>Service Name</strong> and <strong>Description</strong>.
        <ul>
         <li><strong>Service Name</strong>: OpenMetadata identifies services by their service name. Enter a name that distinguishes this deployment from other services, including other {connector} services you are ingesting metadata from.</li>
        </ul>

        <Note>
          The service name cannot be changed after it is set.
       </Note>

        {addNewServicePath && <img src={addNewServicePath} alt="Add New Service" />}
      </Step>

      <Step title="Configure the Service Connection">
        Set up the connection settings required for {connector} to set up the service and start ingesting metadata from your sources. The right-hand panel displays help documentation for the selected connection type in the product UI.
        {serviceConnectionPath && <img src={serviceConnectionPath} alt="Configure Service connection" />}
      </Step>
    </Steps>
  </>;

In this section, we provide guides and references to use the Airbyte connector.
Configure and schedule Airbyte metadata and profiler workflows from the OpenMetadata UI:

* [Metadata Ingestion](#metadata-ingestion)
* [Troubleshooting](/v1.12.x/connectors/pipeline/airbyte/troubleshooting)

## Metadata Ingestion

<MetadataIngestionUi connector={"Airbyte"} selectServicePath={"/public/images/connectors/airbyte/select-service.png"} addNewServicePath={"/public/images/connectors/airbyte/add-new-service.png"} serviceConnectionPath={"/public/images/connectors/airbyte/service-connection.png"} />

# Connection Details

<Steps>
  <Step title="Connection Details">
    <Tip>
      When using a **Hybrid Ingestion Runner**, any sensitive credential fields—such as passwords, API keys, or private keys—must reference secrets using the following format:

      ```
      password: secret:/my/database/password
      ```

      This applies **only to fields marked as secrets** in the connection form (these typically mask input and show a visibility toggle icon).
      For a complete guide on managing secrets in hybrid setups, see the [Hybrid Ingestion Runner Secret Management Guide](https://docs.getcollate.io/getting-started/day-1/hybrid-saas/hybrid-ingestion-runner#3.-manage-secrets-securely).
    </Tip>

    * **Host and Port**: Pipeline Service Management UI URL
    * **Username**: Username to connect to Airbyte.
    * **Password**: Password to connect to Airbyte.
    * **API Version**: Version of the Airbyte REST API by default `api/v1`.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Test the Connection">
    Once the credentials have been added, click on *Test Connection* and *Save* the changes.

  </Step>

  <Step title="Configure Metadata Ingestion">
    In this step we will configure the metadata ingestion pipeline,
    Please follow the instructions below

    <img src="https://mintcdn.com/openmetadata/9SXjaLbGROaofLQU/public/images/connectors/configure-metadata-ingestion-pipeline.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=9SXjaLbGROaofLQU&q=85&s=07da52ea4660beae30246814bb1c55c2" alt="Configure Metadata Ingestion" width="1508" height="1614" data-path="public/images/connectors/configure-metadata-ingestion-pipeline.png" />

    #### Metadata Ingestion Options

    * **Name**: This field refers to the name of ingestion pipeline, you can customize the name or use the generated name.
    * **Pipeline Filter Pattern (Optional)**: Use to pipeline filter patterns to control whether or not to include pipeline as part of metadata ingestion.
      * **Include**: Explicitly include pipeline by adding a list of comma-separated regular expressions to the Include field. OpenMetadata will include all pipeline with names matching one or more of the supplied regular expressions. All other schemas will be excluded.
      * **Exclude**: Explicitly exclude pipeline by adding a list of comma-separated regular expressions to the Exclude field. OpenMetadata will exclude all pipeline with names matching one or more of the supplied regular expressions. All other schemas will be included.
    * **Include lineage (toggle)**: Set the Include lineage toggle to control whether to include lineage between pipelines and data sources as part of metadata ingestion.
    * **Enable Debug Log (toggle)**: Set the Enable Debug Log toggle to set the default log level to debug.
    * **Mark Deleted Pipelines (toggle)**: Set the Mark Deleted Pipelines toggle to flag pipelines as soft-deleted if they are not present anymore in the source system.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Schedule the Ingestion and Deploy">
    Scheduling can be set up at an hourly, daily, weekly, or manual 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.

    After configuring the workflow, you can click on Deploy to create the
    pipeline.

  </Step>

  <Step title="View the Ingestion Pipeline">
    Once the workflow has been successfully deployed, you can view the
    Ingestion Pipeline running from the Service Page.

    <Tip>
      If AutoPilot is enabled, workflows like usage tracking, data lineage, and similar tasks will be handled automatically. Users don’t need to set up or manage them - AutoPilot takes care of everything in the system.
