Create On-Prem Data Connectors

Create On-Prem Data Connectors

After you configure the On-Prem Data Connector Manager on your PC, you can create a new On-Prem Data Connector. You can associate an individual connector with one or more JDBC or scripted on-premises data sources.
You can use multiple On-Prem Data Connectors for the same database. Each connector can have different properties. Also, you can have connectors on different computers. Example: You might work at a company with people using Adaptive Planning Integration in offices across the country. Each worker could have an On-Prem Data Connector associated with a data source that brings the information into their computer.
  1. Select
    Integration
    Design Integrations
    from the main menu.
  2. Select
    On-Prem Data Connectors
    in the component library to view the list ofconnectorss.
  3. Select
    Create New On-Prem Data Connector
    .
  4. Select
    Provision the On-Prem Data Connector
    .
  5. Launch the On-Prem Data Connector Manager if you don't have it open already.
  6. Log in as an Adaptive Planning user with Data Designer permissions on your tenant.
    For Workday tenants that sync users into Adaptive Planning, see Log into the On-Prem Data Connector with Workday Credentials.
  7. Select
    Provision a New On-Prem Data Connector
    .
  8. Provide your Adaptive Planning password.
  9. Select your tenant from the list.
    Usually, only one tenant appears. Each customer has a tenant with a dedicated database schema containing all of the configuration and data. A tenant is identical to the concept of an instance in the Adaptive Planning architecture.
  10. From the
    On-Prem Data Connector Name
    drop-down list, select the connector you want to provision.
  11. Select
    Provision
    and provide your Adaptive Planning password.
  12. Select
    OK
    .
    At this point, the On-Prem Data Connector can communicate with the on-premises source system and Adaptive Planning Integration.
  13. In the Data Designer, select
    Update Configuration
    to synchronize the connector-related properties in the cloud and the On-Prem Data Connector.
    • The in-memory AgentConfig instance object of the On-Prem Data Connector refreshes.
    • If a property is updated, the configuration in the connector device and the corresponding connector property in the cloud refresh.
