CloudWorks Integration Limits

Hello,

I am very new to data integration and trying to start explore this subject thanks to CloudWorks.

On the CloudWorks Anapedia page, it is mentioned that it is only possible to have 25 integrations per Tenant. I am not sure what it does actually mean. Does it mean that one tenant can only use 25 import/export "Actions" in the whole workspace ?!

Thanks for the help.

That is correct. If you want more than 25 "actions" - you can't integrate processes - you will have to purchase the additional usage.

Here's some more notes I took from a demonstration I saw recently. Some good nuggets...

Getting things set up with AWS permissions is the time consuming part.
Name files with .csv
Export and Import file names have to be different
Integrations are likely to be numerous so naming convention is important
25 integration limit without paying for the expansion
No processes can be run, only actions
cannot do model to model yet
Integrations can be scheduled but once scheduled you cannot run it manually

Hi @JaredDolich @Mouhssine_Laghrissi Great conversation! I just stumbled across this discussion and wanted to quickly update anyone else who reads this that there've been a handful of exciting CloudWorks updates since this post in December:

The integration limit for CloudWorks is currently 100 integrations (with plans to update further in the future) 🎉
Processes are now supported in CloudWorks 🎉
Model-to-model import is now supported in CloudWorks! 🎉

We keep Anapedia updated with each release, so this section is continually updated by the product team: https://help.anaplan.com/96f951fe-52fc-45a3-b6cb-16b7fe38e1aa-CloudWorks

Excited to see the enthusiasm around CloudWorks!

Thank you @JaredDolich for your help !

From a discussion with anaplan, the 25 integration limit is reached when using the cloudworks ui, yet this could be bypassed by running the api itself.

As anyone tried this yet ?

What is meant by "expansion" costing more ? Do you mean you have to buy an additional tenant ?

@david.savarin

Definitely you can always use the API natively. There's no limit there.

The 25 limit is part of the Beta release. My understanding is that if you want to "expand" that to a higher number, you'll need to pay an additional cost. Sorry, that was a little confusing. I think that's why they don't allow processes since you can effectively put as many actions in them as you want.

To make things clearer, I was referring to the cloudworks api, not the bulk api.

I wonder if anyone tested that the cloudworks api hasnt the same limit as its ui alter-ego

Very excited about this functionality as I think the native scheduler will be huge win for business led integrations. Will look forward to watching this evolve and grow over time!
