NASA APOD

governmentbuilt on requestauth: API key

Sync NASA's Astronomy Picture of the Day archive.

The NASA APOD connector syncs the Astronomy Picture of the Day archive into analytics-ready tables in your data warehouse. Pull entries by date or range, with titles, explanations, media URLs, and copyright, from the NASA Open APIs, with Ingest handling auth, pagination, and retries so the tables stay current.

NASA APOD is not a certified connector yet. Ingest authors one from the vendor's API documentation when a customer asks for it, runs it against the real API, and only then lists it as deployable. Request it and it moves up the queue.

What you can sync

Ingest lands the following NASA APOD data in your warehouse or lake, each as its own table on the schedule you pick:

  • Daily entries
  • Date ranges
  • Media URLs
  • Attribution

Authentication

API key. Get a free key at api.nasa.gov, or use DEMO_KEY for a low rate limit.

Credentials go into a form, never into a chat, and are held in a secret store under your own path. Only the key NAMES ever reach the control database.
