Making Basic Updates to a Connector

Update a connector in Connector Hub.

Note

  • To avoid automatic deactivation by Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, validate that the connector successfully moves data by checking for expected results at the target service and optionally enable logs.
  • It's not possible to retrofit an existing connector to use a stream with a private endpoint. If the stream pool selected for the stream source or target is public, it can't be changed to private, and the connector can't be updated to reference a private stream. To change the source or target to use a different private stream, or to use a source or target other than Streaming, re-create the connector with the source and target that you want. An example of the need for a different private stream is a stream that was moved to a different stream pool. In that case, re-create the connector using the moved stream. Ensure that you deactivate or delete the old connector with the stream source or target that you don't want any more.

When you update a connector, you can also update its tags. For more information about tagging, see Resource Tags.

    1. On the Connectors list page, find the connector that you want to work with. If you need help finding the list page or connector, see Listing Connectors.
    2. From the Actions menu (Actions Menu) for the connector, select Edit.
    3. On the Edit connector page, change values as needed.
      For information about the fields on this page, see Creating a Connector.
    4. If the default access policy wasn't accepted before, you can accept it now.
      The default access policy allows this connector to write to the target service. You can get this authorization through these default policies or through group-based policies. The default policies are offered whenever you use the Console to create or edit a connector. The only exception is when the exact policy already exists in IAM, in which case the default policy isn't offered. For more information about this authorization requirement, see Authentication and Authorization.
    5. Select Save changes.
    If you updated the source service or tasks, then data movement might pause for a few minutes, as indicated by Data Freshness metrics. Within a few minutes, the connector begins moving data according to its configuration. The connector applies tasks to data from the source service and then moves the data to the target service.

  • Use the oci sch service-connector update command and required parameters to update a connector:

    oci sch service-connector update --service-connector-id <connector_OCID>

    For a complete list of parameters and values for CLI commands, see the CLI Command Reference.

  • Run the UpdateServiceConnector operation to update a connector.
