Info Interface
Overview
Each Connector
has to implement the Info
interface. This interface provides information about the list of supported functions and endpoints of the Connector
.
The data is validated by the Core
to check if the Connector
is compliant with the definition of interfaces based on its function group.
How it works
The Info
interface is used during the Connector
registration and reconnecting to update the information if necessary.
Processes
Client operations
The Client
with proper permissions can manage the Connectors
and invoke API that works with the Info
interface of the Connector
.
The following diagrams represents the requests and communication flow.
Connector self-registration
The Connector
is allowed to self-register in the platform. In this case the information about the Connector
is stored and waiting for approval by the user or administrator.
The registration of the Connector
may be executed by any external entity.
Specification and example

interface on the following locations:
