Supported apps

Connect docs via MCP

An app is a connector workflow that runs on your tenant—a crawler (pulls metadata), a miner (pulls query history for lineage and usage metrics), or an enrichment job—and publishes the results to Atlan for discovery. A single connector can expose more than one app: for example, Snowflake has a crawler app and a miner app.

Every app has a typed, UI-equivalent builder in pyatlan.model.apps that walks the same three steps as the "new app" wizard—Credential → Connection → Metadata—so you can create and run an app without knowing the underlying payload.

For the full lifecycle—create, run, list, update, schedule, and delete—see Manage apps.
Each app below documents every authentication method and configuration option.

Can't find an app for your connector?

If a connector doesn't have a builder yet, you can still create and run its app by passing a raw inputs dict (matching the app's input contract) to client.app.create():

app_create_example.py
from pyatlan.client.atlan import AtlanClient

client = AtlanClient()

response = client.app.create(
    app_id="bigquery-crawler",
    name="my-workflow",
    inputs={...},  # values matching the app's input contract
    run=True,
)

Use client.app.get_input_contract("<app-id>") to discover the available input keys, types, and defaults for any app.
