Configures connection assignments for a resource based on the properties in the specified resource configuration file. Connection assignments are connections between two metadata sources. Metadata Manager uses connections to run data lineage across metadata sources.
Use the assignConnection command when you move resources from a development to a production environment. After you create a resource based on a resource configuration file, you might need to change the connection assignments in the resource configuration file. You then use the assignConnection command to update the resource with the modified connection assignments.
