Couchbase

If you’re new to Unstructured, read this note first.

Before you can create a source connector, you must first sign in to your Unstructured account:

• If you do not already have an Unstructured account, go to https://unstructured.io/contact and fill out the online form to indicate your interest.
• If you already have an Unstructured account, sign in by using the URL of the sign in page that Unstructured provided to you when your Unstructured account was created. If you do not have this URL, contact Unstructured Sales at [e-mail].

After you sign in, the Unstructured user interface (UI) appears, which you use to create your source connector.

After you create the source connector, add it along with a destination connector to a workflow. Then run the worklow as a job. To learn how, try out the hands-on UI quickstart or watch the 4-minute video tutorial.

You can also create source connectors with the Unstructured API. Learn how.

If you need help, reach out to the community on Slack, or contact us directly.

You are now ready to start creating a source connector! Keep reading to learn how.

Ingest your files into Unstructured from Couchbase.

The requirements are as follows.

• For the Unstructured UI or the Unstructured API, only Couchbase Capella clusters are supported.
• For Unstructured Ingest, Couchbase Capella clusters and local Couchbase server deployments are supported.

For Couchbase Capella, you will need:

• A Couchbase Capella account.

• A Couchbase Capella cluster.

• A bucket, scope, and collection on the cluster.

• The cluster’s public connection string.

• The cluster access name (username) and secret (password).

• Incoming IP address allowance for the cluster.

  To get Unstructured’s IP address ranges, go to https://assets.p6m.u10d.net/publicitems/ip-prefixes.json and allow all of the ip_prefix fields’ values that are listed.

  These IP address ranges are subject to change. You can always find the latest ones in the preceding file.

For a local Couchbase server, you will need:

• Installation of a local Couchbase server.
• Connection details to the local Couchbase server.
