Self-Host Extract API
Own the runtime with a deliberate plan for access, updates, and recovery.
A focused use case
Run a narrowly scoped worker near approved internal sources while keeping public documentation separate from the secret-bearing runtime.
A practical workflow
Select verified software, pin tested versions, isolate workers, and define a job lifecycle. Add resource limits, credential rotation, output validation, and recovery tests before increasing source access.
An example record contract
These fields illustrate the decisions to make before implementation. Adapt the names and required values to the receiving system; the table is not a promise of a live endpoint or a provider-specific response.
| Example field | Meaning in this contract |
|---|---|
| job_id | Stable task identity |
| runtime_revision | Tested software configuration |
| record_status | Validation outcome |
| delivery_status | Consumer acknowledgment |
Limits worth keeping visible
This site does not distribute an extraction server or verified container image. Self-hosting brings operational responsibilities; container packaging alone does not establish security or readiness.
Before increasing the workload
Run a small, authorized test set through the whole path, including the receiving application. Keep accepted, rejected, and incomplete outcomes distinguishable. A result should retain the context needed to explain its meaning after it leaves the extractor.
Continue with Self-Host Extract API: Build an Operating Model for the full implementation discussion, and use the sample contract documentation to review the shape of a handoff.
Consult the source documentation for implementation details and current access conditions. The workflow above is an editorial planning pattern.
