Where to find CloudQuery folders for setup on Windows

CloudQuery Plugins
1

Hi Team CloudQuery,

Just a quick question from me trying to start with the tool on Windows. A very basic and stupid one: where can I find the CloudQuery folders to set up the sources, destinations, etc.?

I have set it up using the command in the documentation using PowerShell. The log is empty, and I was able to authenticate, so it seems to work :slightly_smiling_face:

Hi @devoted-cattle :wave:

Great to hear authentication works.
You can find the plugins in this link.
For example, here is a guide to sync AWS to Postgres: Sync AWS to Postgres.

Hi Erez,

Clear, but I think I should store these somewhere locally, isn’t it? I.e., with the right settings. Or can I do that in my own GitHub account?

And if I could use GitHub, how do I authenticate?

Sorry for all these stupid basic questions :slightly_smiling_face:

What do you mean by storing them locally? When you run the CloudQuery CLI (e.g. cloudquery sync myconfig.yml), it will download any plugins in your configuration to the .cq directory under the current working directory.

So the CloudQuery CLI will download any plugins it needs for you.

Sorry, please let me be more clear @erez. What is the default working directory and how can I change that?

The default working directory is the current one, and plugins will be downloaded to a .cq directory under it. You can pass --cq-dir <path-to-dir> to modify the default.
