2.1 Connectors

Connectors are an entry point for data into the Data Context Hub that allow the user to connect to different data sources like databases, external systems or files.

Once a Connector is created, it can be used to create a Container in the Data Sources section of the Model. From there, the user can create Target Entities that map the file data to the knowledge graph structure. The data can then be processed into the graph using the Build operation.

For more advanced data integration scenarios, consider using Intake Agents, which provide extended capabilities for connecting to external systems and automating data retrieval.
