[Sigma](https://www.sigmacomputing.com/) is a cloud analytics and business intelligence platform. Connecting Sigma to Paradime extracts your Sigma metadata so your workbooks and datasets appear in the catalog and lineage next to the dbt™ models that feed them.

## What you can do

    Sigma workbooks and datasets appear as assets in Paradime's catalog and lineage, so you can trace dbt™ models through to the reports built on them.
  </Card>
</CardGroup>

## Step 1: Identify your organization's cloud

You'll need your organization's cloud details to identify the endpoint for Paradime authentication.

<Info>
  For GCP organizations, use: `https://api.sigmacomputing.com/`

  For AWS organizations, use: `https://aws-api.sigmacomputing.com/`
</Info>

To identify your organization's cloud:

1. Login to your Sigma account.
2. In the top right of the screen, click your **profile avatar** and then click **Administration** to open your *Account* page.
3. On the *Account* page, under *Site* in *General Settings*, view the cloud details.

## Step 2: Create an API token and client ID

To create an API token and client ID:

1. Login to your Sigma account.
2. In the top right of the screen, click your profile avatar and then click **Administration**.
3. In the left panel, navigate to **Developer Access**.
4. In the top right of the *Developer Access* page, click the **Create New** button.
5. In the *Create client credentials* dialog,
   1. *Select privileges:* click the **Rest API** checkbox
   2. *Name:* enter a meaningful name like `Paradime API credentials`
   3. *Owner:* select the user you would like to associate with the token
6. Click **Create** to finish creating the API token.
7. Once prompted, copy and paste your Client ID and API key secret in a secure location.

Both the API token and the client ID are required for authentication in Paradime.

### Verify necessary permissions

<Info>
  Ensure that the owner associated with the API token has the following permissions:

  * `Can View` permission for all the Sigma workbooks and datasets you want to crawl.
  * `Can Use` permission for all the Sigma connections used in the workbooks and datasets.
</Info>

To grant permissions, follow the instructions in these links:

* [Workbooks and datasets](https://help.sigmacomputing.com/hc/en-us/articles/4402444938003)
* [Connections](https://help.sigmacomputing.com/hc/en-us/articles/360037430393)

## Catalog & Lineage

Bring Sigma assets into Paradime's [data catalog and column-level lineage](/products/data-catalog/asset-details/sigma), so you can trace dbt™ models through to the workbooks built on them.

The Sigma integration is set up by the **Admin user** for your organization profile. In Paradime, go to **Settings → Integrations** (see [connecting integrations](/integrations/connecting-integrations)), find **Sigma**, and click **Connect**.

### Step 3: Connection parameters

| Field             | Required | Description                                                                                                          |
| ----------------- | -------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Host Name**     | ✅        | The API endpoint for your cloud (GCP: `https://api.sigmacomputing.com/`, AWS: `https://aws-api.sigmacomputing.com/`) |
| **Client ID**     | ✅        | The Client ID from your Sigma API credentials                                                                        |
| **Client Secret** | ✅        | The API key secret from your Sigma API credentials                                                                   |

Click on Test Connection to validate that Paradime can connect to your Sigma account.
