Creating a connector

A connector is how a data source is linked to a product or service. With the Connector Development Kit, you can create your connector from scratch, or by using the OpenAPI documentation of the app to which you are configuring a connection, or with the help of generative AI.

Creating a connector using an OpenAPI document

This is the easiest and quickest way to create a connector. All you need is the v2 or v3 spec of the OpenAPI document, and you're ready to go. After you have imported the document, you have the option to customize the connector as you want. For more information, see Creating a connector using an OpenAPI document.

Creating a connector from scratch

If an OpenAPI document is not available, then you have the option to create a connector from scratch. If you choose this option, then you should have a good understanding of the application's REST API. For more information, see Creating a connector from scratch.

Creating a connector using generative AI

Instead of creating a connector from scratch, you can create connectors with the help of generative AI. If you choose this option, then you should have a good understanding of the application's REST API URLs work. For more information, see Creating a connector using generative AI.

Defining a connector version

In the Connector Development Kit, you can create multiple versions of a single connector when you make updates to the connector. For more information, see Connector versioning.
