Aviationstack

Business software

Built when you ask for it

Sync Aviationstack flight, airport, and airline data into your warehouse. Ingest builds this connector the first time a customer asks for it, then keeps the tables current in a data warehouse you own, on the schedule you choose.

The Aviationstack connector syncs your flight data into analytics-ready tables in your data warehouse. Pull flights, airports, airlines, and routes from the Aviationstack API, with Ingest handling auth, pagination, and retries so the tables stay current.

What you would get

Each of these arrives as its own table, kept current on the schedule you choose:

  • Flights
  • Airports
  • Airlines
  • Routes

How it gets built

  1. Choose Aviationstack when you set up a pipeline, with the warehouse it goes to and a schedule.
  2. Ingest reads Aviationstack's documentation, and you choose the tables you want.
  3. Ingest builds the connector and tests it against Aviationstack itself.
  4. A person at Ingest reviews and publishes it, and your pipeline starts on its own.

What you will need

API key, sent as a query parameter: ?access_key=. Sign up free for an API key; no credit card required for the free tier.

You enter it once, in a form in Ingest, and it is kept in a secret store set aside for your organization.

Questions

Does Ingest have a Aviationstack connector?
Not as a finished connector yet. Ingest builds it from Aviationstack's own documentation the first time a customer asks, tests it against the real service, and lists it once it passes.
Which warehouses can Aviationstack data go to?
Amazon S3, Google Cloud Storage, Azure Blob Storage, Apache Iceberg, Ingest Managed Lakehouse, MotherDuck, Postgres, Amazon Athena, Databricks, Redshift, BigQuery, ClickHouse, MySQL / generic SQL and Snowflake, in an account you own.
Do I need to write code?
No. Ingest builds, runs and maintains the connector. Someone with access to your warehouse connects it once, following a short guide.
