# Running Connectors

To run a data connector, you need to authenticate with the Curiosity Workspace using API tokens.

1. API Token: Navigate to Manage > API Integrations and click "Create API Token".
2. Endpoint Token: Navigate to Manage > Tokens and create an "Endpoints" token.

If you are using the standard templates, set the following environment variables:

• CURIOSITY_API_TOKEN: Your API integration token.
• CURIOSITY_ENDPOINTS_TOKEN: Your endpoints token.

Run your connector using the .NET CLI:

dotnet run --project MyConnector.csproj

Once finished, explore the data in the workspace:

• Data Browser: Manage > Data to see node counts and properties.
• Shell: Manage > Shell to run C# queries against the graph.

// Example Shell Query
return Q().StartAt(N.Device.Type).Take(10).Emit();
