I have a requirement, where we will take user inputs in our web based UI and based on the inputs we will create ETL job. Since ETL job will be created dynamically we will require API.

Using "CloverETL Designer", we can statically create ETL jobs. But I guess it must be using some API internally to create ETL jobs. Is this possible to create such ETL jobs by directly calling those APIs? If yes, is there some kind of documentation/examples available for using that API?

Thanks,
Arnav

  Hello,
  CloverETL Designer uses CloverETL Engine, that is partly open source. Free CloverETL Engine can be downloaded from here.

  Hello Arnav,
  Source code and javadoc are available on the sourceforge page. You can also find zip file with examples there. It contains JavaExamples project, that illustrates how to call CloverETL Engine API from java. Some documentation can be found on our Wiki pages also, but it can be a bit obsolete. Take a look on our blog as well (eg. Tips for Integrating CloverETL to Third Party Applications).
