Start with VegaLake

This dashboard-first path gets you to an implemented product workflow without assuming administrator access.

Prerequisites

  • A VegaLake account that is approved for an organization
  • Membership in at least one workspace
  • Permissions for the product resources you plan to view or create
  • For API use, a bearer token or service-principal API key accepted by the selected operation

1. Sign in

Open the VegaLake dashboard and sign in. If your account or organization is pending approval, finish that process before continuing. If your organization requires two-factor authentication, complete enrollment when prompted.

2. Select an organization

The organization controls membership, security policy, roles, groups, service principals, and workspace access. Navigation and actions are permission-aware; a missing menu item usually means your current identity lacks the corresponding permission.

3. Select a workspace

Product resources are workspace-scoped. Record the organization and workspace IDs if you plan to call an API because customer product paths include org_id and workspace_id.

4. Choose a supported first workflow

Move data with VegaFlow

Create a connection and cluster, configure a QuickFlow, and inspect its first run.

Explore metadata with VegaGraph

Search for an entity, open Entity 360, and follow its lineage.
VegaDB is currently a preview. See VegaDB availability instead of attempting an operational setup.

5. Automate through APIs

Read API fundamentals before using the generated reference. Match the service base URL, authentication method, organization/workspace path parameters, and permissions shown for the operation.

If something is missing

Verify the selected organization and workspace first, then confirm your role or direct permission. See troubleshooting for common authorization, validation, connection, cluster, run, and lineage symptoms.
