The Guardian API to Neon Integration

AI-first ETL from The Guardian API into Neon. Governed entities, incremental sync, typed landing tables.

How Datrise loads The Guardian API into Neon

Datrise syncs The Guardian API's articles, sections, tags, contributors, publication dates, and headlines into Neon as a typed table per source entity. Flexible or custom fields land in jsonb columns, and timestamps such as created, updated, and status changes are typed as timestamptz.

Sync is incremental: Datrise uses a watermark on updated-at, applied with INSERT … ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE, so re-runs update only what changed. Optional declarative partitioning by load date. Neon separates compute from storage, so Datrise batches writes to keep autoscaling compute from cold-starting on every small change.

Ideal for serverless Postgres workloads that scale to zero between syncs.

Endpoints

FAQ

How does Datrise handle The Guardian API's custom fields in Neon?

Flexible values are stored as jsonb columns, so new fields don't require a migration; strongly-typed fields — dates, numbers, and references — are promoted to native Neon types.

How does the The Guardian API to Neon sync stay up to date?

It runs incrementally — Datrise uses a watermark on updated-at, applied with INSERT … ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE.
