Kafka Connect
Manage Kafka Connect / Debezium connectors via the worker REST API.
OCNORA ships 7 typed Kafka Connect operations. Each node has a schema-driven form, input and output tables beside its settings, and is pre-flighted by Workflow Health before your first real run.
Before you connect Kafka Connect
- Authentication
- Username & password
- Credential
- the password (optional), or {"password": "…"}
- Connection test
- Available: the stored credential can be checked against the provider when you add it. This is not a record that a test was run or passed.

A sample Kafka Connect workflow
- 1A core triggerStart the run from a chat, form, manual, schedule, webhook, workflow trigger — no Kafka Connect trigger is needed.
- 2List Connectorskafka_connect.list_connectorsList the connectors on the worker.
- 3Create Connectorkafka_connect.create_connectorCreate a connector (e.g. a Debezium source).
An outline built from this provider’s node contracts, not a recorded run. Each step’s output fields are available to the next in the field picker.
Every node below has a reference page: what it does, the connection it needs, its config fields with types, constraints and examples, and the shapes it emits.

Kafka Connect questions
- How does OCNORA authenticate with Kafka Connect?
- With a stored Username & password credential, shaped the password (optional), or {"password": "…"}. A connection test can check it when you add it.
- What can I automate with Kafka Connect?
- 7 typed operations, each with a reference page listing its config fields and the shapes it emits.
- What if the Kafka Connect operation I need is not listed?
- Where Kafka Connect has an HTTP API, call it from the HTTP node with the same credential, or describe the step to the AI builder, which asks our team for a typed node when one is missing.
- Are there templates that use Kafka Connect?
- Not yet. Start from a blank workflow, or describe the workflow to Build with AI.
- How are Kafka Connect calls controlled?
- Every call and every run step is audited, runs count against the execution budget, and Workflow Health pre-flights the workflow when you save it.
