Creating an Import Connector Config

Before you can use an Importer to stream data to InfoSum, you will need to create an Import Connector Config to tell InfoSum the connection details and credentials of the cloud storage files you want to stream.

Where to manage Import Connector Configs

Under File Management, select the Importing tab and click Manage ICCs. This page contains a list of saved Import Connector Configs you can use.

Select an ICC to view more information about an ICC. Use the search bar to find the ICCs you are interested in.

Create an Import Connector Config

Click Create New ICC. Enter a name, description and select the connector type for the ICC.

Click Next and enter credentials for the selected connector as described in the following links:

After you enter the credentials, click Next and specify the file paths on your cloud storage. Any Importer using this ICC will only be able to import from these paths.

Click Save to save your selected config to the Import Connector Config page. Once saved, an Import Connector Config can be reused indefinitely with different Imports and shared with other users.

Edit or delete an ICC

To edit or delete an Import Connector Config, click the 3 dots in the details pane and select Edit or Delete. Click < on the main page to return to the Importers page.

Please note:

You cannot change an ICC’s connector type.
When you edit an ICC, the following fields are hidden from view: JSON credentials (GCS connectors), AWS access key ID and AWS Secret Key (S3 Access-Key connectors). If you leave these fields empty, the original entries will be used. Updating a hidden field overwrites the original entry.

Next steps

Now you've created an Import Connector Config, you can create an Importer.
