Extending Connector Functionality

Learn how to add DataSense to your connector so it can sense dynamic and static metadata, making Mule application design more intuitive and less burdensome.

Familiarize yourself with the query language and libraries that your connector can use to query data from a service

To avoid processing all records in memory at once, use pagination, which allows the connector to ingest the records in chunks, thus improving connector performance. Note that your service’s API must support pagination if you want to use the feature in your connector.

Handle large batches of messages and discover the records easily by adding two classes to your connector’s code

Add support for shading (renaming) JAR files in scenarios where multiple versions of dependencies are required that may collide with those in Mule

For libraries or JARs that cannot be packaged in your connector, prompt Anypoint Studio to request them from the connector user and build the connector with them.
