Connecting to Data in Ridge AI

Ridge is part of a modern data stack. Connect, refresh, and partition your data, all while respecting your ultimate source of truth.
Connecting to data in Ridge- connect, refresh, partition, transform

How to Connect

A data connection validates credentials so you can create datasets from the connection.

Establish a Connection

Establish a connection to a data source to create Datasets that can refresh or partition data.

You can also work directly from a file upload.

User interface for adding new dataset with fields for name, source, connection, query, and refresh schedule.

Add a Dataset

Datasets are the data backing a dashboard and data agent in Ridge. Datasets can come from Data Connections or file uploads. Note that file uploads cannot refresh automatically or partition data.

Set Refresh Schedule

If your dataset has a Data Connection, you can set a schedule to ingest and refresh the data.

Partition

If every customer needs to see their own slice of the data, set a partition field in your Dataset-- typically  on fields with unique identifiers like account_id.

Use the Transform Agent for casting, dataset-level filters, and extending your data.

Transform

The Transform Agent supports light data transforms like type casting, applying Dataset-level filters, and column renaming.  It's available for any Dataset on the Data page.

The Details button shows you all transforms that have been applied.
