About the source and destination

Monday

Monday is the first day of the week in most countries and is typically associated with the start of a new work or school week. It is often viewed as a day of productivity and setting goals for the week ahead. Many people may feel a sense of dread or stress on Mondays, commonly referred to as the "Monday blues." However, others may view it as an opportunity to start fresh and tackle new challenges. Some cultures also have specific traditions or superstitions associated with Mondays, such as avoiding certain activities or wearing specific colors. Overall, Monday represents a new beginning and a chance to make the most of the week ahead.

Convex

Convex is a platform that provides a suite of tools for building and deploying machine learning models. It offers a user-friendly interface for data scientists and developers to create and train models, as well as a scalable infrastructure for deploying them in production. Convex also includes features such as automated model tuning, version control, and collaboration tools to streamline the machine learning workflow. The platform is designed to be flexible and customizable, allowing users to integrate their own libraries and frameworks. Overall, Convex aims to simplify the process of building and deploying machine learning models, making it accessible to a wider range of users.

TL;DR

This can be done by building a data pipeline manually, usually a Python script (you can leverage a tool as Apache Airflow for this). This process can take more than a full week of development. Or it can be done in minutes on Airbyte in three easy steps:

  1. set up Monday as a source connector (using Auth, or usually an API key)
  2. set up Convex as a destination connector
  3. define which data you want to transfer and how frequently

You can choose to self-host the pipeline using Airbyte Open Source or have it managed for you with Airbyte Cloud.

This tutorial’s purpose is to show you how.

Prerequisites

  1. A Monday account to transfer your customer data automatically from.
  2. A Convex account.
  3. An active Airbyte Cloud account, or you can also choose to use Airbyte Open Source locally. You can follow the instructions to set up Airbyte on your system using docker-compose.

Airbyte is an open-source data integration platform that consolidates and streamlines the process of extracting and loading data from multiple data sources to data warehouses. It offers pre-built connectors, including Monday and Convex, for seamless data migration.

When using Airbyte to move data from Monday to Convex, it extracts data from Monday using the source connector, converts it into a format Convex can ingest using the provided schema, and then loads it into Convex via the destination connector. This allows businesses to leverage their Monday data for advanced analytics and insights within Convex, simplifying the ETL process and saving significant time and resources.

Step 1: Set up Monday as a source connector

1. First, navigate to the Airbyte website and create an account.
2. Once you have logged in, click on the ""Sources"" tab on the left-hand side of the screen.
3. Scroll down until you find the Monday source connector and click on it.
4. You will be prompted to enter your Monday API key. If you do not have one, you can generate one by following the instructions provided.
5. Once you have entered your API key, click on the ""Test"" button to ensure that the connection is successful.
6. If the test is successful, click on the ""Save & Continue"" button to proceed.
7. You will then be prompted to select the data you want to sync from Monday. You can choose from a variety of options, including boards, tasks, and users.
8. Once you have selected the data you want to sync, click on the ""Save & Continue"" button to proceed.
9. You will then be prompted to set up your destination connector. This will depend on where you want to sync your data to.
10. Follow the instructions provided to set up your destination connector and complete the syncing process.

Step 2: Set up Convex as a destination connector

1. First, navigate to the Airbyte website and log in to your account.
2. Once you are logged in, click on the "Destinations" tab on the left-hand side of the screen.
3. From there, click on the "Add Destination" button in the top right corner of the screen.
4. In the search bar, type "Convex" and select the Convex destination connector from the list of options.
5. Next, you will need to enter your Convex API key. This can be found in your Convex account settings.
6. Once you have entered your API key, click on the "Test" button to ensure that the connection is working properly.
7. If the test is successful, click on the "Save" button to save your settings.
8. You can now use the Convex destination connector to transfer data from Airbyte to your Convex account.

Step 3: Set up a connection to sync your Monday data to Convex

Once you've successfully connected Monday as a data source and Convex as a destination in Airbyte, you can set up a data pipeline between them with the following steps:

  1. Create a new connection: On the Airbyte dashboard, navigate to the 'Connections' tab and click the '+ New Connection' button.
  2. Choose your source: Select Monday from the dropdown list of your configured sources.
  3. Select your destination: Choose Convex from the dropdown list of your configured destinations.
  4. Configure your sync: Define the frequency of your data syncs based on your business needs. Airbyte allows both manual and automatic scheduling for your data refreshes.
  5. Select the data to sync: Choose the specific Monday objects you want to import data from towards Convex. You can sync all data or select specific tables and fields.
  6. Select the sync mode for your streams: Choose between full refreshes or incremental syncs (with deduplication if you want), and this for all streams or at the stream level. Incremental is only available for streams that have a primary cursor.
  7. Test your connection: Click the 'Test Connection' button to make sure that your setup works. If the connection test is successful, save your configuration.
  8. Start the sync: If the test passes, click 'Set Up Connection'. Airbyte will start moving data from Monday to Convex according to your settings.

Remember, Airbyte keeps your data in sync at the frequency you determine, ensuring your Convex data warehouse is always up-to-date with your Monday data.

Use Cases to transfer your Monday data to Convex

Integrating data from Monday to Convex provides several benefits. Here are a few use cases:

  1. Advanced Analytics: Convex’s powerful data processing capabilities enable you to perform complex queries and data analysis on your Monday data, extracting insights that wouldn't be possible within Monday alone.
  2. Data Consolidation: If you're using multiple other sources along with Monday, syncing to Convex allows you to centralize your data for a holistic view of your operations, and to set up a change data capture process so you never have any discrepancies in your data again.
  3. Historical Data Analysis: Monday has limits on historical data. Syncing data to Convex allows for long-term data retention and analysis of historical trends over time.
  4. Data Security and Compliance: Convex provides robust data security features. Syncing Monday data to Convex ensures your data is secured and allows for advanced data governance and compliance management.
  5. Scalability: Convex can handle large volumes of data without affecting performance, providing an ideal solution for growing businesses with expanding Monday data.
  6. Data Science and Machine Learning: By having Monday data in Convex, you can apply machine learning models to your data for predictive analytics, customer segmentation, and more.
  7. Reporting and Visualization: While Monday provides reporting tools, data visualization tools like Tableau, PowerBI, Looker (Google Data Studio) can connect to Convex, providing more advanced business intelligence options. If you have a Monday table that needs to be converted to a Convex table, Airbyte can do that automatically.

Wrapping Up

To summarize, this tutorial has shown you how to:

  1. Configure a Monday account as an Airbyte data source connector.
  2. Configure Convex as a data destination connector.
  3. Create an Airbyte data pipeline that will automatically be moving data directly from Monday to Convex after you set a schedule

With Airbyte, creating data pipelines take minutes, and the data integration possibilities are endless. Airbyte supports the largest catalog of API tools, databases, and files, among other sources. Airbyte's connectors are open-source, so you can add any custom objects to the connector, or even build a new connector from scratch without any local dev environment or any data engineer within 10 minutes with the no-code connector builder.
