# Keboola

Keboola is not a storage service itself, but rather a data integration and analytics platform. It helps organizations manage, prepare, and analyze data from various sources. Keboola can work with both database storage and object storage, as well as other data storage solutions, depending on the integrations and configurations used. It's more of a data operations platform that enables data processing and transformation, rather than being strictly a storage service.

## Authorize Connection to Keboola

### Prerequisites

- A running Keboola instance reachable by Dataddo. If you use a firewall, allow the [Dataddo IPs](/docs/network-acl).
- A database user with rights to create tables and to insert, update, and delete rows in the target schema.

### Create the authorizer

In Authorizers, click Authorize New Service and select Keboola, then fill in the fields:

| Field | Description |
| --- | --- |
| A name for this authorizer in Dataddo | A label so you can recognize the connection later. |
| Keboola API token | Keboola API token |
| Bucket ID | Bucket ID |
| Endpoint | Endpoint Default: `https://connection.north-europe.azure.keboola.com`. |

Click Save. Dataddo validates the connection.

## Create a Keboola Destination

Go to Destinations, click Create Destination, and select Keboola. Give the destination a name, choose the authorizer you created, and click Save.

## Write Modes

The write mode decides how each flow run changes the target table. Keboola offers the standard set below, and the default is `insert`. Which modes are available, and whether you can switch modes on an existing flow, can depend on the table's current state.

| Mode | Meaning | Composite Key |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `insert` | Appends new rows on every run. | No |
| `insert_ignore` | Appends rows, skipping rows that already exist. | Yes |
| `truncate_insert` | Empties the table, then writes the current data. | No |
| `upsert` | Inserts new rows and updates existing rows matched by the Composite Key. | Yes |
| `update` | Updates existing rows matched by the Composite Key; fails rows with no match. | Yes |
| `update_ignore` | Updates matched rows, skipping rows with no match. | Yes |
| `delete` | Deletes rows matched by the Composite Key. | Yes |

### Composite Key

The Composite Key is the set of columns whose combined values identify each row. Every mode except `insert` and `truncate_insert` needs one. You can select up to 4 columns.

## Table Naming

Dataddo creates the table on the first write if it does not exist. When you name the table:

- Table name: table name should contains only letters, numbers, dashes or underscores.
- You can put date-range patterns such as `{{1d1}}` in the table name.

## How to Create a Flow to Keboola

1. Go to Flows and click Create Flow.
2. Add one or more sources.
3. Add Keboola as the destination and pick the authorizer.
4. Choose a write mode, and a Composite Key for modes that need one.
5. Set the schema and the table name.
6. Set the schedule and click Save.

## Troubleshooting

### Invalid schema or table name

The schema or table name does not match Keboola's naming rules. Fix the name in the flow to match the rules in Table Naming, then restart the flow.

### Insufficient privileges

The database user cannot create tables or write rows in the target schema. Grant the user create, insert, update, and delete rights, then restart the flow.

### Cannot connect to Keboola

Dataddo cannot reach the database. Check the host, port, and credentials in the authorizer, and make sure the server is reachable by Dataddo. If you use a firewall, allow the [Dataddo IPs](/docs/network-acl).
