Manage Data Imports Configuration through API/Sync

Hello,

Is in the roadmap the possibility to create data import configurations automatically (https://kb.pigment.com/docs/connect-google-bigquery#load-bigquery-data-into-pigment), for example through an API or by syncing with a file in a repository? At the moment these are set up manually, and we would like to understand what automation options exist to govern what is accessible and configurable in Pigment.
Best,
António

Hi ​@antoniof 

Great question! BigQuery import configurations must currently be created in the Pigment interface. There is no public API to create them or synchronize them.

Once a configuration is saved, you can:

For governance, BigQuery connections can be restricted to selected applications. API keys inherit their creator’s permissions and data visibility, so we recommend a dedicated service account where appropriate.

We can’t confirm a roadmap commitment for API-based configuration creation. We recommend submitting your use case or feature request through the Pigment Community Ideas Portal here: https://community.pigment.com/ideas.
