## About

[ArcadeDB][arcadedb-docs] is a multi-model database that supports graph (Cypher),
document (SQL), key-value, and time-series data in one engine. It exposes a
Bolt protocol endpoint compatible with the Neo4j driver.

## Requirements

### Database User

This source uses standard authentication. Create an ArcadeDB user (or use the
`root` user) that can connect over Bolt.

## Example

```yaml
kind: source
name: my-arcadedb-source
type: arcadedb
uri: bolt://localhost:7687
user: root
password: ${PASSWORD}
database: "mydb"
```

{{< notice tip >}}
Use environment variable replacement with the format ${ENV_NAME}
instead of hardcoding your secrets into the configuration file.
