Conni (by ananas.codes) Python API Docs | dltHub

Build a Conni (by ananas.codes)-to-database pipeline in Python using dlt with AI harness support for Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex.

Last updated:

Conni is a middleware platform by ananas.codes that integrates cloud-based HR and time-tracking software with physical hardware like Datafox terminals. The REST API base URL is n/a and no public REST API authentication available.

dlt is an open-source Python library that handles authentication, pagination, and schema evolution automatically. dlthub provides AI context files that enable code assistants to generate production-ready pipelines. Install with uv pip install "dlt[workspace]" and start loading Conni (by ananas.codes) data in under 10 minutes.


What data can I load from Conni (by ananas.codes)?

Here are some of the endpoints you can load from Conni (by ananas.codes):

ResourceEndpointMethodData selectorDescription
papershift/papershiftGETPapershift integration data
timebutler/timebutlerGETTimebutler integration data
personio/personioGETPersonio integration data
hrworks/hrworksGETHRWorks integration data
clockodo/clockodoGETClockodo integration data

How do I authenticate with the Conni (by ananas.codes) API?

Conni functions as a middleware/integration platform that syncs data between systems like Datafox terminals and HR software; it does not provide a public REST API for general-purpose user access, but rather manages integrations via private, configuration-based connections between specific partner services.

No credentials required. The Conni (by ananas.codes) API is public, so there is nothing to obtain and nothing to add to .dlt/secrets.toml — the pipeline above runs as written.


How do I set up and run the pipeline?

Set up a virtual environment and install dlt:

uv venv && source .venv/bin/activate uv pip install "dlt[workspace]"

1. Install the dlt AI harness:

dlthub ai init --agent <your-agent> # <agent>: claude | cursor | codex

This installs project rules, a secrets management skill, appropriate ignore files, and configures the dlt MCP server for your agent. Learn more →

2. Install the rest-api-pipeline toolkit:

dlthub ai toolkit rest-api-pipeline install

This loads the skills and context about dlt the agent uses to build the pipeline iteratively, efficiently, and safely. The agent uses MCP tools to inspect credentials — it never needs to read your secrets.toml directly. Learn more →

3. Start LLM-assisted coding:

Use /find-source to load data from the Conni (by ananas.codes) API into DuckDB.

The rest-api-pipeline toolkit takes over from here — it reads relevant API documentation, presents you with options for which endpoints to load, and follows a structured workflow to scaffold, debug, and validate the pipeline step by step.

4. Run the pipeline:

python conni_by_ananas_codes_pipeline.py

If everything is configured correctly, you'll see output like this:

Pipeline conni_by_ananas_codes_pipeline load step completed in 0.26 seconds 1 load package(s) were loaded to destination duckdb and into dataset conni_by_ananas_codes_data The duckdb destination used duckdb:/conni_by_ananas_codes.duckdb location to store data Load package 1749667187.541553 is LOADED and contains no failed jobs

Inspect your pipeline and data:

dlt pipeline conni_by_ananas_codes_pipeline show

This opens the Pipeline Dashboard where you can verify pipeline state, load metrics, schema (tables, columns, types), and query the loaded data directly.


Python pipeline example

This example loads integrations and sync from the Conni (by ananas.codes) API into DuckDB. It mirrors the endpoint and data selector configuration from the table above:

import dlt from dlt.sources.rest_api import RESTAPIConfig, rest_api_resources @dlt.source def conni_by_ananas_codes_source(): config: RESTAPIConfig = { "client": { "base_url": "n/a", }, "resources": [ {"name": "papershift", "endpoint": {"path": "papershift"}}, {"name": "personio", "endpoint": {"path": "personio"}} ], } yield from rest_api_resources(config) def get_data() -> None: pipeline = dlt.pipeline( pipeline_name="conni_by_ananas_codes_pipeline", destination="duckdb", dataset_name="conni_by_ananas_codes_data", ) load_info = pipeline.run(conni_by_ananas_codes_source()) print(load_info)

To add more endpoints, append entries from the resource table to the "resources" list using the same name, path, and data_selector pattern.


How do I query the loaded data?

Once the pipeline runs, dlt creates one table per resource. You can query with Python or SQL.

Python (pandas DataFrame):

import dlt data = dlt.pipeline("conni_by_ananas_codes_pipeline").dataset() sessions_df = data.papershift.df() print(sessions_df.head())

SQL (DuckDB example):

SELECT * FROM conni_by_ananas_codes_data.papershift LIMIT 10;

In a marimo or Jupyter notebook:

import dlt data = dlt.pipeline("conni_by_ananas_codes_pipeline").dataset() data.papershift.df().head()

See how to explore your data in marimo Notebooks and how to query your data in Python with dataset.


What destinations can I load Conni (by ananas.codes) data to?

dlt supports loading into any of these destinations — only the destination parameter changes:

DestinationExample value
DuckDB (local, default)"duckdb"
PostgreSQL"postgres"
BigQuery"bigquery"
Snowflake"snowflake"
Redshift"redshift"
Databricks"databricks"
Filesystem (S3, GCS, Azure)"filesystem"

Change the destination in dlt.pipeline(destination="snowflake") and add credentials in .dlt/secrets.toml. See the full destinations list.
