Connector

The connector and sync jobs APIs provide a convenient way to create and manage Elastic connectors and sync jobs in an internal index. Connectors are Elasticsearch integrations that bring content from third-party data sources, which can be deployed on Elastic Cloud or hosted on your own infrastructure:

• Elastic managed connectors (Native connectors) are a managed service on Elastic Cloud
• Self-managed connectors (Connector clients) are self-managed on your infrastructure.

This API provides an alternative to relying solely on Kibana UI for connector and sync job management. The API comes with a set of validations and assertions to ensure that the state representation in the internal index remains valid.
