How to connect a private Cognite project to Python DSK [Community Contributed]

I am new to learning how to utilize Cognite Data Fusion. I apologize if this question has already been answered; if it has, please inform me!

Currently, I plan to use Cognite to establish a connection with a digital twin and utilize the Python SDK to import and extract data using custom-built models. However, I have a question regarding connecting the SDK to a private project. In the case of Open Industrial Data, we were provided with a Tenant ID, Client ID, and Base_URL.

Hence, I would like to inquire whether there are any specific steps or requirements to connect to a private access project using the Python SDK. I would greatly appreciate any assistance you can provide. Thank you!

Hello,

To connect to a private project, while requesting it, you will need to connect it to an organization/domain name. 

https://docs.cognite.com/cdf/sign-up/#step-1-choose-the-domain-name-and-cdf-admin

This organization name is connected to an Identity Provider (idP) which will take care of the authentication of the project. 

When requesting a new (private) project,  you are being asked for the IdP details, like admin group ID and tenant ID from Azure AD for example. 

If it is a new IdP, you should also configure the idP to establish trust between the IdP and CDF. 

You can read more info here https://docs.cognite.com/cdf/learn/cdf_auth/cdf_auth_idp
