How automating BC Data Catalogue works
- Describe the outcome. Say what you want to happen, in your own words. No node graphs, no field mapping.
- Approve the contract. HumDay writes down exactly what it will do, what it will touch, and what it will never do. You approve it before anything is built.
- See it proven. The program runs and shows you the result before it is allowed near your live BC Data Catalogue account.
- Grant access, then go live. You approve the specific BC Data Catalogue operations it may use — and only those.

Questions about BC Data Catalogue automation
- Can HumDay connect to BC Data Catalogue?
- Yes. HumDay reads BC Data Catalogue's own published API description and derives the operations from it, so there is no hand-built connector to wait for. 22 operations are documented.
- Do I need to write code to automate BC Data Catalogue?
- No. You describe the outcome you want in plain words. HumDay agrees a contract with you, writes the program, and shows you a test run before anything touches your BC Data Catalogue account.
- What can HumDay do in BC Data Catalogue?
- 0 of the 22 documented operations change something in BC Data Catalogue, and 22 read from it. HumDay only ever uses the specific operations your approved contract needs.
- Is my BC Data Catalogue account safe?
- Your credentials are stored encrypted and are never shown in chat, code, or logs. Every run is limited to the operations you explicitly approved, and anything that writes to BC Data Catalogue is held behind that approval.
Where this came from
The operations above are read from a published API description for BC Data Catalogue at raw.githubusercontent.com/bcgov/api-specs/master/bcdc/bcdc.json. Descriptions are the provider’s own words, not ours. Last published 2021-06-21.
