DiscoLike Python API Docs | dltHub
Build a DiscoLike-to-database pipeline in Python using dlt with AI Workbench support for Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex.
Last updated:
The DiscoLike API provides business discovery and data enrichment services. It includes endpoints for company data and MCP integration. The API documentation is available at https://api.discolike.com/v1/docs/. The REST API base URL is https://api.discolike.com/v1 and All requests require a Bearer token for authentication.
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 DiscoLike data in under 10 minutes.
What data can I load from DiscoLike?
Here are some of the endpoints you can load from DiscoLike:
| Resource | Endpoint | Method | Data selector | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| contacts_match | contacts/match | GET | matches | Find and retrieve matching contact records based on query parameters. |
| discover | discover | GET | Retrieve a list of discoverable entities (top‑level array). | |
| count | count | GET | Return count statistics for various resources. | |
| bizdata | bizdata | GET | Provide detailed company data for a given identifier. | |
| score | score | GET | Return a relevance score for supplied entities. |
How do I authenticate with the DiscoLike API?
Authentication is performed via an HTTP Authorization header using a Bearer token, e.g. "Authorization: Bearer <access_token>".
1. Get your credentials
- Sign up for a DiscoLike account at the provider website.
- Log in to the dashboard and navigate to the "API Keys" or "Authentication" section.
- Click "Create new token" (or similar) and give it a descriptive name.
- Copy the generated token; this is the value you will pass as the access_token parameter.
- Store the token securely and reference it in your dlt secrets.toml file.
2. Add them to .dlt/secrets.toml
[sources.discolike_source] token = "your_access_token_here"
dlt reads this automatically at runtime — never hardcode tokens in your pipeline script. For production environments, see setting up credentials with dlt for environment variable and vault-based options.
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 Workbench:
dlt 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:
dlt 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 DiscoLike 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 discolike_pipeline.py
If everything is configured correctly, you'll see output like this:
Pipeline discolike_pipeline load step completed in 0.26 seconds 1 load package(s) were loaded to destination duckdb and into dataset discolike_data The duckdb destination used duckdb:/discolike.duckdb location to store data Load package 1749667187.541553 is LOADED and contains no failed jobs
Inspect your pipeline and data:
dlt pipeline discolike_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 contacts_match and discover from the DiscoLike 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 discolike_source(access_token=dlt.secrets.value): config: RESTAPIConfig = { "client": { "base_url": "https://api.discolike.com/v1", "auth": { "type": "bearer", "token": access_token, }, }, "resources": [ {"name": "contacts_match", "endpoint": {"path": "contacts/match", "data_selector": "matches"}}, {"name": "discover", "endpoint": {"path": "discover"}} ], } yield from rest_api_resources(config) def get_data() -> None: pipeline = dlt.pipeline( pipeline_name="discolike_pipeline", destination="duckdb", dataset_name="discolike_data", ) load_info = pipeline.run(discolike_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("discolike_pipeline").dataset() sessions_df = data.contacts_match.df() print(sessions_df.head())
SQL (DuckDB example):
SELECT * FROM discolike_data.contacts_match LIMIT 10;
In a marimo or Jupyter notebook:
import dlt data = dlt.pipeline("discolike_pipeline").dataset() data.contacts_match.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 DiscoLike data to?
dlt supports loading into any of these destinations — only the destination parameter changes:
| Destination | Example 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.
