Integrate with Experian DQ

Integration via REST API (Recommended for Aperture)

Step 1: Get Experian API Access

Experian's Aperture Data Studio offers REST APIs for:

  • Data Profiling

  • DQ Rule Execution

  • Metadata Access

  • Data Quality Scorecards

Request API access via your Experian account manager. Ensure you get:

  • Base URL (e.g., https://api.experian.com/dq/)

  • OAuth2 credentials or API keys

  • Swagger/OpenAPI specs (optional)

Step 2: Configure Zetaris REST API Source

  1. Go to Connections > Data Sources

  2. Select REST API

  3. Fill in:

    • Base URL

    • Authentication Type (e.g., Bearer Token or OAuth2)

    • Headers if needed

    • Optional: Import Swagger for schema detection

Step 3: Define API Calls

You can define endpoints such as:

Purpose Endpoint
Run Profiling Job /profiling/start
Get Profiling Results /profiling/result/{jobId}
List DQ Rules /dq/rules
Run DQ Rules /dq/run
Get DQ Scores /dq/scorecard

Use Zetaris REST Data Source Wizard to define:

  • GET or POST calls

  • Parameter templates

  • Authentication handling

Step 4: Use API Output as Virtual Tables

Once connected:

  • Zetaris will treat API responses as virtual tables

  • You can run SQL over JSON outputs (e.g., flattening response)

  • Join with other internal or cloud datasets
