CLI Tools

PlaidCloud provides three command-line and on-machine tools for working with workspaces outside the web UI:

PlaidLink is an agent that runs inside your network to bridge PlaidCloud workflows to firewall-protected resources — databases, file shares, and other systems that PlaidCloud can’t reach directly. It installs as a Windows service, Unix/Linux/Mac daemon, container, or Kubernetes pod.

PlaidXL is the PlaidCloud Excel add-in. It lets analysts pull data from project tables, refresh saved queries, and read PlaidCloud variables directly inside Microsoft Excel.

Jupyter CLI lets data scientists work with PlaidCloud project data from Jupyter notebooks using a PlaidCloud-aware CLI and Python helpers.
