Build Claude Compliance-Connected Web Apps with Axios and CData Connect AI

Axios is a JavaScript library that allows developers to make HTTP requests to servers from a web browser or Node.js. When paired with CData Connect AI, you get access to live Claude Compliance data for your web apps. This article shows how to connect to Claude Compliance and build web apps in Axios with access to live Claude Compliance data.

Connect to Claude Compliance from Axios

To work with Claude Compliance in Axios, we need to connect to Claude Compliance from Connect AI, provide user access to the connection, and create a Workspace for the Claude Compliance data.

Connect to Claude Compliance from Connect AI

CData Connect AI uses a straightforward, point-and-click interface to connect to data sources.

1. Log into Connect AI, click Sources, and then click Add Connection

2. Select "Claude Compliance" from the Add Connection panel

3. Enter the necessary authentication properties to connect to Claude Compliance.

   The driver connects to Claude Compliance using a Compliance Access Key, the only supported authentication method. Set the following connection property:

   • APIKey: The Compliance Access Key you created.

   Creating a Compliance Access Key

   1. Enable the Compliance API for your organization.
   2. Sign in to claude.ai as a primary owner or organization owner and open Organization settings > API > Keys.
   3. Select Create Key and assign only the scopes your integration needs:
      • read:compliance_activities for Activities and the typed activity views.
      • read:compliance_org_data for organizations, roles, groups, and settings.
      • read:compliance_user_data for users, chats, files, projects, and downloads.
      • delete:compliance_user_data for the explicit Delete stored procedures.
   4. Create the key and copy it when it appears. The key starts with sk-ant-api01- and is shown only once.

   Optionally, set OrganizationUUID to limit organization-scoped views (such as OrganizationUsers and ComplianceRoles) to a single linked organization. If it is left empty, those views default to the first available organization and do not include data from all linked organizations.

   
4. Click Save & Test
5. Navigate to the Permissions tab in the Add Claude Compliance Connection page and update the User-based permissions.

Add a Personal Access Token

When connecting to Connect AI through the REST API, the OData API, or the Virtual SQL Server, a Personal Access Token (PAT) is used to authenticate the connection to Connect AI. It is best practice to create a separate PAT for each service to maintain granularity of access.

1. Click on the Gear icon () at the top right of the Connect AI app to open the settings page.
2. On the Settings page, go to the Access Tokens section and click Create PAT.
3. Give the PAT a name and click Create.
4. The personal access token is only visible at creation, so be sure to copy it and store it securely for future use.

Configure Claude Compliance Endpoints for Axios

After connecting to Claude Compliance, create a workspace for your desired table(s).

1. Navigate to the Workspaces page and click Add to create a new Workspace (or select an existing workspace).
2. Click Add to add new assets to the Workspace.
3. Select the Claude Compliance connection (e.g. ClaudeCompliance1) and click Next.
4. Select the table(s) you wish to work with and click Confirm.
5. Make note of the OData Service URL for your workspace, e.g. https://cloud.cdata.com/api/odata/{workspace_name}

With the connection, PAT, and Workspace configured, you are ready to connect to Claude Compliance data from Axios.

Connect to Claude Compliance Data in Axios Workflows

To establish a connection from Axios to CData Connect AI using the OData protocol, follow these steps.

1. Create a project directory for your web app. For example: ~/connect_cloud/
2. Open a terminal, navigate the the project directory and initialize a node project using the command:

   npm init -y

3. Install the Axios dependency in the project using the following command:

   npm install axios

4. In your project directory, create a file called server.js that contains the following code. Provide your CData Connect AI username (e.g. [email protected]) and PAT (the PAT you created in the prerequisites). You must also provide a query for your data, such as SELECT * FROM ClaudeCompliance1.SCHEMA.Projects.

   server.js code

   
         const axios = require('axios')
   
         const user = '[email protected]'
         const pat = '***********************************';
   
         //Your API endpoint
         const url = 'https://cloud.cdata.com/api/odata/{workspace_name}';
   
         //Your data to be sent in the POST request
         const data = {
         "query":"SELECT * FROM {workspace_name}.SCHEMA.Projects"
         };
   
         axios.post(url, data, {
         auth: {
         username: user,
         password: pat
         }
         })
         .then(response => {
         const rows = response.data.results[0].rows;
         const schema = response.data.results[0].schema;
   
         //Create an array of column names
         const columnNames = schema.map(col => col.columnName);
   
         //Loop through each row and log the column name with its value
         rows.forEach(row => {
         const rowObject = {};
         row.forEach((value, index) => {
         const columnName = columnNames[index];
         rowObject[columnName] = value;
         });
         console.log(rowObject);
         })
         })
         .catch(error => {
         console.error('Error:', error);
         });
       

5. In the terminal, execute the following command to run the server:

   node server.js

   The query results will appear:

   
       { ID: 1, VALUE: -2 }
       { ID: 2, VALUE: 1 }
       { ID: 11, VALUE: null }
       { ID: 3, VALUE: 2 }
       { ID: 4, VALUE: 5 }
       ...
