Step 2. Build a connector

Step 2. Build a connector

Register the new connector and then use the SDK or a Swagger file to build the connector for use in different cloud services.
Before you build a connector, register the new connector to reserve the connector name with Informatica.
Use the following methods to build a connector:
Use SDK
Download the SDK to install the Informatica Connector Toolkit on your machine to build a connector that uses JDBC drivers, third-party libraries, or REST APIs.
The SDK contains the installer files for the toolkit. The Informatica Connector Toolkit is an Eclipse plug-in that adds the wizards and menus to the Eclipse IDE to develop, test, and deploy a connector.
You can build a connector using the toolkit and then deploy the connector in sandbox and production environments using INFAConnect.
Use Swagger file
Use a Swagger JSON or an OpenAPI JSON file to build a connector in INFAConnect.
