@Chris Grabiel​  Do you have any experience connecting REDCAP API to Databricks you would be able to share?

We absolutely do. We ingest to the lake via Redcap API AND folks use it in notebooks. How can we help?

I've been filling warehouses and lakes for a little over a decade, and as such I've held all types of roles along my data engineering "journey." Have a question? Just ask!

How are you connecting tot he API - pyCap? - if so how are you loading that into the cluster library (Maven, jar?)- and if you have a sample notebook you would be willing to share (obviously without API key) that would be incredibly helpful.

We (Atrium) or now Advocate Health SE are integrating with WF- our EPIC instances are not going to be combined until next year - but we have a project that would benefit from some immediate data exchange - WF will load into REDCAP a list of AH patients and Specimen collection dates from our Oncore instance into a data collection form and we are going to put Ht and wgt to calc bmi closest to that date from our EPIC instance for that patient back into REDCAp - so we need to bi-directional api. We have been looking online and there is not a lot of how to connect to connect to REDCAP from databricks

Does that make sense?
