Importing connector configurations

Learn how to import your connector configuration.

Configuration can not only be edited or typed, but imported as well. You can initiate import by clicking the Import Connector Configuration button. You can then select a file containing a JSON text. The file is parsed, and its content is displayed in the grid.

  1. Click the New Connector option in the upper right corner of the Connect Cluster page.
    The Select A Template screen appears.
  2. Go to Source Templates or Sink Templates section based on your requirement.
  3. Select a connector.
    The Properties page appears.


  4. Click Import Connector Configuration to import configurations for a connector.
    The Import Connector Config... dialog appears.
    • You can type or paste your configuration in JSON format.
    • You can use the Browse button to open a configuration file in the blank pane.
  5. Click Import or Import and Enhance to import the connector configurations.
    The two buttons function in different ways. Here are the details:
    • Import

      Import populates the connector creation form with the values from the Import Connector Config... dialog.

    • Import and Enhance

      Import and Enhance populates the connector creation form with the values from the Import Connector Config... dialog and also adds values that are most likely needed for the respective connector.

  6. Validate your connector configurations and click Next.
