Connector

A Connector is a Coveo module that establishes a connection with a specific repository type to access its content to be indexed.

If an item is secured, the connector also extracts the corresponding permissions from the repository and saves them as item metadata (see Content Security and Coveo Cloud Management of Security Identities and Item Permissions). In the Coveo Administration Console, connectors are presented as sources.

See Manage your sources and Coveo’s Connector directory for more information.
