Use Amazon Athena in your Crisp app.
Run SQL on files in S3 with Athena.
Your app can run SQL queries over data files in S3 through Athena and show the results in tables and charts. Athena writes results to an S3 location, so give the access key permission for Athena, Glue and that bucket.
What you need.
Create the keys in your Amazon Athena account and paste them in. Each one is saved under the name shown, and your app reads it by that name.
- Access key id
AWS_ATHENA_ACCESS_KEY_ID- console.aws.amazon.com, IAM, your user, Security credentials, Create access key. A user allowed to run Athena queries. Starts with AKIA
- Secret access key
AWS_ATHENA_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY- Shown once when the access key is created. Pairs with the access key id
- Region optional
AWS_ATHENA_REGION- us-east-1 when empty. Common ones are us-east-1, us-east-2, us-west-2, ca-central-1, eu-west-1, eu-west-2, eu-central-1, ap-south-1, ap-southeast-1, ap-southeast-2, ap-northeast-1, sa-east-1
- Workgroup optional
AWS_ATHENA_WORKGROUP- console.aws.amazon.com, Athena, Workgroups. The workgroup queries run in, primary when unsure Get it
- Query result location optional
AWS_ATHENA_OUTPUT_LOCATION- An S3 path where Athena writes results. Leave empty when the workgroup enforces its own
How to connect.
-
Open your project, or start a new one from the dashboard.
-
Open the workspace menu and choose Connectors, then pick Amazon Athena.
-
Paste the keys and save. Your preview restarts, and your app can use the service from then on.
Then ask for the feature
- “Chart page views per day from our logs in S3”
- “Let the team run saved queries over the data lake”
What happens to your keys.
- Each key is saved as a private setting of your project, under the name shown above.
- The AI that builds your app sees only the names. It writes code that reads each key by name, and never the value.
- The values reach your preview and your published app, and never the chat, the code or the logs.
- Open Connectors in your project to replace a key or disconnect the service. Publish again so your live app uses the change.
Service names and logos belong to their owners; Crisp is not affiliated with them. A service changes its keys and pages now and then. Found something out of date? Tell us and we will correct it.
Ask for the feature, and Crisp builds it with Amazon Athena.
