Connector Configuration

A connector host is configured using parameters that specify its location and how it is reached.

  1. Click the Templates tab in the tree pane.
  2. If necessary, expand the Hosts tree in the Templates tab to find the host you want to use.
  3. Right-click the host and select Clone and Activate
    The entire pre-configured host branch (including actions) is copied and activated, the Active tab is selected in the tree pane, and the new active host is selected in the tree.  If necessary, the new active host alias is appended with a number to make it unique. 
    Note: The original pre-configured host remains in the pre-configured tree.
  4. Enter host-level configuration information.
    1. Click the new host in the tree pane.
    2. Enter host-level configuration information on the tabs in the content pane. See Connector Host Configuration.
    3. Click Apply to save your work.
  5. Enter action-level configuration information.
    1. Click an existing host action to display its configuration tabs. Alternatively, right-click the host and select New Host Action.
    2. Edit action information on the tabs in the content pane. See Connector Host Action Configuration.
    3. Click Apply to save your work.
Important: If you leave any of these panels without clicking Apply, your work will not be saved. You can configure the native UI to prompt to you click Apply when changes are made. See Other system options. However, in the web UI, this is not valid. In the web UI, if you make updates to a host and then click a part of the product not related to a host, for example any of the buttons in the banner, the product will not prompt you to click Apply and your updates will not be saved.
