Monte Carlo

Catalog integrates with Monte Carlo to display monitors in the Catalog app.

Requirement​

warning

A Warehouse type integration must already be configured to complete the first ingestion of this integration.

Catalog needs API access through two elements:

  • A key ID
  • A secret

Read more about generating API keys in the Monte Carlo documentation.

The key you create should:

Monte Carlo API settings showing account-level key creation. Only users with the Account Owner role can create account-level keys.
From Monte Carlo: Only users with the Account Owner role can create account-level keys
  • have Viewers Authorizations (or equivalent)

Add the Integration​

On your integration page, in the Data Quality section, add Monte Carlo. This integration is only Catalog-managed. Name it and provide the credentials for API access as JSON under the following format and Save.

{
    "keyId": "*****",
    "secret": "*****"
}

From there, Catalog will get monitor results and push them to the tables and columns they evaluate, under the condition that those tables are also integrated in Catalog.

For your first sync, it will take up to 48 h. Catalog will let you know when it is complete.
