Configuration – Connectors

Overview
Connectors in
SmartSpace.ai
are tools for syncing data into the platform with minimal configuration. They act as bridges between
SmartSpace.ai
and various data sources, holding the necessary credentials for data access. These connectors can be reused across different Dataspaces for data selection.

Available Connectors:

1. Azure Storage Account
2. SharePoint
3. HubSpot

Connector Configuration:

1. Azure
   Storage Account:

Required: Connection string in the format:

DefaultEndpointsProtocol=https;AccountName=YourAccountName;AccountKey=YourAccountKey;EndpointSuffix=core.windows.net

This can be found under ‘Access Keys’ in the Azure Storage Account resource.

2. SharePoint:

1. Create an App Registration in Azure Active Directory:

• Navigate to Azure Active Directory and select “App registrations”.
