Configure a Download Connector

Here’s how you could use the Connector Setup Wizard to configure the Active Worker Single Line Download connector for WorkingNet.

Note that the pages and options shown in this demonstration are specific to this connector. These options may not be available in other connectors. Conversely, there may be options available in other connectors that we won’t see here.

Configure an Upload Connector

The process for enabling and configuring an upload connector is not significantly different than it is for a download connector. However, as upload and download connectors work in opposite directions, there are some differences in formatting and data requirements. Therefore, there are differences in the process that are worth exploring.

Let’s take a look at some of the other options that you might see when enabling and configuring an upload connector.

Customize a Connector

When you originally enabled the Active Worker Single Line Download connector, you bypassed the customize section because, at the time, you didn’t need custom features. However, you’ve since decided that the connector does indeed need some custom fields added to it.

Here’s how you’d edit the connector to add custom fields.
