CircleCI
Updated over a week ago

Introduction

To enable the CircleCI connector, you need a Personal API Token tied to a service account.

Steps to connect

Step 1

Create a CircleCI service account (i.e., a GitHub account) that will be used for the DX Data Cloud connection.

Step 2

In CircleCI, be sure to "Follow" projects that you want to import into DX Data Cloud. Only projects that you are following will be imported.

Step 3

Browse to User Settings to generate a new API Token. In addition, to an API token, you'll need to know your CircleCI project slug which will be a string in a format such as github/dx-eng.

Step 4

Navigate to the Data Cloud > Connections screen within DX, then add a connection using your credentials generated in the previous steps.
