API reference
PLACEHOLDER Cloud exposes a versioned REST API over HTTP. The authoritative shape is the OpenAPI schema you can dump at any time with dqc export-schema. This page is the entry-level walkthrough — the surface, the auth, the conventions.
Architecture
PLACEHOLDER Cloud has four moving parts: a React UI, a FastAPI backend (api/), an ARQ worker (worker/), and a Postgres + Redis pair behind them. The contributor-facing deep-dive is in AGENTS.md §1 — including Mermaid diagrams that render in GitHub. This page is the user-facing overview.
dqc CLI reference
PLACEHOLDER Cloud ships an operator CLI named dqc. It's installed by pip install -e '.[api]' (or uv sync) and lives on your PATH. Run dqc --help for the in-tree summary; this page is the prose version.
Configuration reference
Every PLACEHOLDER Cloud setting comes from environment variables, loaded by api/src/dqcloudapi/config.py. The canonical template is .env.example — this page is the prose version. Both must stay in sync; if you ship a new env var, update both.
Glossary
Terminology used throughout PLACEHOLDER Cloud. Definitions match what the code calls things — when the docs say "asset" we mean the DataAsset row, not "any data in your warehouse."
