To use pagination with a paging cursor where the URL is inside a key of the paging object in the output, you can use the CursorPagination strategy in Airbyte. In this strategy, you can define the next page to fetch by evaluating an interpolated string. The cursor value can be extracted from the response body or the HTTP headers. Here is an example of how you can set it up: yaml paginator: type: "DefaultPaginator" &lt;...&gt; pagination_strategy: type: "CursorPagination" cursor_value: "{{ response['paging']['next'] }}" page_token_option: type: "RequestPath" In this example, the cursor_value is set to {{ response['paging']['next'] }}, which means that the cursor value (the URL of the next page) is extracted from the next key inside the paging object in the response. The page_token_option is set to RequestPath, which means that the entire request URL for the subsequent request will be replaced by the cursor value. Please note that this is a general example and you might need to adjust it according to the specific structure of your API’s response. For more information, you can refer to the Airbyte documentation on Cursor Pagination.

how to refresh token using connector builder <@U04SE163WC8>

A message from http://kapa.ai|kapa.ai

To refresh a token using the Connector Builder in Airbyte, you can use the “Overwrite config with refresh token response” setting. Here are the steps: 1. In the Connector Builder UI, under the Authentication section, select OAuth. 2. Fill in the necessary details like API Base URL and Token Refresh Endpoint. 3. Enable the “Overwrite config with refresh token response” setting. This means that the authenticator expects a new refresh token to be returned from the token refresh endpoint. 4. By default, the property refresh_token is used to extract the new refresh token, but this can be configured using the “Refresh token property name” setting. 5. The connector then updates its own configuration with the new refresh token and uses it the next time an access token needs to be generated. 6. If this option is used, it’s necessary to specify an initial access token along with its expiry date in the “Testing values” menu. Here is the relevant extract from the Airbyte documentation: markdown In a lot of cases, OAuth refresh tokens are long-lived and can be used to create access tokens for every sync. In some cases however, a refresh token becomes invalid after it has been used to create an access token. In these situations, a new refresh token is returned along with the access token. One example of this behavior is the [Smartsheets API](<https://smartsheet.redoc.ly/#section/OAuth-Walkthrough/Get-or-Refresh-an-Access-Token>). In these cases, it's necessary to update the refresh token in the configuration every time an access token is generated, so the next sync will still succeed. This can be done using the "Overwrite config with refresh token response" setting. If enabled, the authenticator expects a new refresh token to be returned from the token refresh endpoint. By default, the property `refresh_token` is used to extract the new refresh token, but this can be configured using the "Refresh token property name" setting. The connector then updates its own configuration with the new refresh token and uses it the next time an access token needs to be generated. If this option is used, it's necessary to specify an initial access token along with its expiry date in the "Testing values" menu. Please note that the OAuth authentication method does not implement a single-click authentication experience for the end user configuring the connector - it will still be necessary to obtain client id, client secret and refresh token from the API and manually enter them into the configuration form.

how to use access_token after refreshing in global configuration in connection builder for other streams <@U04SE163WC8>

In the Airbyte Connector Builder, once you have refreshed the access token using the “Overwrite config with refresh token response” setting, the new access token is automatically used for all subsequent requests, including requests for other streams. The connector updates its own configuration with the new refresh token and uses it the next time an access token needs to be generated. Here’s an example from the Airbyte documentation: markdown This can be done using the "Overwrite config with refresh token response" setting. If enabled, the authenticator expects a new refresh token to be returned from the token refresh endpoint. By default, the property `refresh_token` is used to extract the new refresh token, but this can be configured using the "Refresh token property name" setting. The connector then updates its own configuration with the new refresh token and uses it the next time an access token needs to be generated. When fetching records, the access token is sent along as part of the Authorization header. Here’s an example: markdown curl -X GET \ -H "Authorization: Bearer &lt;access-token&gt;" \ <https://connect.squareup.com/v2/&lt;stream> path&gt; In this example, &lt;access-token&gt; is the refreshed access token. This is done automatically by the connector for all streams. Please note that you need to specify an initial access token along with its expiry date in the “Testing values” menu if you use the “Overwrite config with refresh token response” option.

i need help with this error: {
“code”: 40002,
“message”: “client_id: Field must be set to string or not be present”,
“request_id”: “20240306041118C298625D786D481721D8”
}
<@U04SE163WC8>

The error message you’re seeing indicates that the client_id field in your configuration should be set to a string value or not be present at all. This means that the client_id field is either missing, or it’s not a string. In the context of Airbyte, the client_id is usually a required field for many sources as seen in the extracts from the Zoho CRM, Primetric, Genesys, Railz, Outreach, and Strava documentation. Here’s how it’s typically defined: markdown FieldTypeProperty name requiredstringclient_id This means that client_id is a required field and it should be a string. Please check your configuration and ensure that the client_id field is present and is a string. If you’re entering this information manually, make sure to enclose the client_id in quotes to ensure it’s treated as a string. For example: json { "client_id": "your_client_id_here" } If you’re still having trouble, please refer to the specific documentation for the source you’re trying to configure, or reach out to the Airbyte community for further assistance.

convert “7336132223625592834” to string <@U04SE163WC8>

In most programming languages, you can convert a number to a string by using built-in functions. However, the provided information extracts do not specify a particular programming language or context within Airbyte’s Connector Builder. Here are examples in some common languages: - Python: str(7336132223625592834) - JavaScript: String(7336132223625592834) - Java: Long.toString(7336132223625592834L) Please note that these are general programming examples and may not directly apply to your use case within Airbyte’s Connector Builder.
