Frequently Asked Questions about create-connector

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I scaffold a new data connector for a platform that lacks one?

To scaffold a new data connector, you run the built-in scaffold command to bootstrap the project structure, which generates the initial files needed to begin implementing data extraction and authentication logic for the target platform.

What is the process to contribute a new platform integration to the registry?

Contributing a platform integration involves scaffolding the connector, implementing its logic, testing it against platform APIs and the registry schema, and finally submitting it as a pull request complete with required documentation and tests.

Do I need to use Playwright to test and validate new data connectors?

Playwright is utilized within the testing and validation phase to ensure the connector works against platform APIs and conforms to the registry schema, allowing you to verify data extraction logic before submission.

Can I use this to implement and validate authentication logic for a data connector?

Yes, you can implement and validate authentication logic as part of the guided implementation steps, ensuring your connector properly authenticates with the target platform APIs before you submit the contribution.

What's the best way to ensure my data connector passes registry schema validation?

The best way to pass registry schema validation is to use the built-in testing tools that check your connector against platform APIs and the registry schema, catching structural and integration issues before submission.
