Configuring your connections

Overview

This section covers connection-specific configuration options (outside of authentication credentials). Salesforce connections, for example, have different settings one can tweak versus, say, Airtable or Zendesk.

Not all connections take extra configuration options.

There are six areas where connection-specific configurations can manifest:

  • Outside of Polytomic (for example, configuring your SQL database for CDC streaming).
  • At connection creation through the configuration object.
  • At model creation (to be used as a source for model syncs) through the configuration object.
  • At model sync creation where the connection is a destination, through the target.configuration object.
  • At bulk sync creation where the connection is a source, through the source_configuration object.
  • At bulk sync creation where the connection is a destination, through the destination_configuration object.
