# PokéAPI ## Tutorials The PokéAPI is primarly used as a tutorial and educational resource, as it requires zero dependencies. Learn how Airbyte and this connector works with these tutorials: - [Airbyte Quickstart: An Introduction to Deploying and Syncing](../../using-airbyte/getting-started/readme.md) - [Airbyte CDK Speedrun: A Quick Primer on Building Source Connectors](../../connector-development/tutorials/cdk-speedrun.md) - [How to Build ETL Sources in Under 30 Minutes: A Video Tutorial](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kJ3hLoNfz_E&t=13s&ab_channel=Airbyte) ## Features | Feature | Supported? | | :---------------------------- | :--------- | | Full Refresh Sync | Yes | | Incremental - Append Sync | No | | Replicate Incremental Deletes | No | | SSL connection | No | | Namespaces | No | This source uses the fully open [PokéAPI](https://pokeapi.co/docs/v2#info) to serve and retrieve information about Pokémon. This connector should be primarily used for educational purposes or for getting a trial source up and running without needing any dependencies. As this API is fully open and is not rate-limited, no authentication or rate-limiting is performed, so you can use this connector right out of the box without any further configuration. ## Output Schema Currently, only one output stream is available from this source, which is the Pokémon output stream. This schema is defined [here](https://github.com/airbytehq/airbyte/tree/master/airbyte-integrations/connectors/source-pokeapi/source_pokeapi/schemas/pokemon.json). ## Rate Limiting & Performance Considerations \(Airbyte Open Source\) According to the API's [fair use policy](https://pokeapi.co/docs/v2#fairuse), please make sure to cache resources retrieved from the PokéAPI wherever possible. That said, the PokéAPI does not perform rate limiting. ## Data Type Mapping The PokéAPI uses the same [JSONSchema](https://json-schema.org/understanding-json-schema/reference/index.html) types that Airbyte uses internally \(`string`, `date-time`, `object`, `array`, `boolean`, `integer`, and `number`\), so no type conversions happen as part of this source. ## Changelog
