This topic describes how to connect to Palantir Foundry from Domino. Palantir Foundry is an enterprise-level data management platform. To connect successfully, you must have network connectivity between Palantir and your Domino deployment.
There are two ways to connect to Palantir Foundry:
-
Create a Palantir Foundry data source
-
Connect using environment variables
Administrators can create a data source for Palantir Foundry that Domino users can access. Domino recommends this method. See the Admin Guide for details.
After your administrator has created the data source, you can query it as usual.
To connect to Palantir Foundry using this method, you must have the following:
-
A Palantir Foundry account.
-
An access token.
-
A path to the dataset.
Copy the dataset path
-
In the Palantir Foundy application, go to the Project containing the dataset to access.
-
From the Code section, select the dataset.
-
In the About section, hold the cursor over the path by the Location attribute and click the clipboard icon to copy the path.
Tip -
Save the path or RID string to store as an environment variable in Domino.
Add environment variables to Domino
You can store your Palantir connection information securely in Domino as environment variables in your user or project settings.
-
Sign in to Domino.
-
Click User or Project settings.
-
Click Environment Variables.
-
Add the
PALANTIR_TOKEN
environment variable with the value of the user token you created in Foundry. -
Add the
PALANTIR_HOSTNAME
environment variable with the value of your Foundry instance hostname.
Add the Palantir-SDK package to your environment
Some Domino workspace environments have the palantir-sdk
package installed by default.
You can also add Dockerfile commands to the environment definition to add packages:
RUN pip install -user palantir-sdk
You can also create a cell at the top of a Jupyter notebook and run the following:
pip install palantir-sdk
