Connectors are set up for your site by our Implementation team, as it is an advanced technical process. Contact our Support teamarrow-up-right if you need to set up a new connector, modify an existing connector, or enable other users to run a connector.

Connectors are a way to get your data into Phocas. They are data synchronization tools that connect to third-party systems to read data. A typical connector might request data from a third-party API, such as Paylocitiy, Sage, Formstack, and IPS, and bring it into Phocas.

Administrators can run a connector from within the Connectors page. Non-administrators can run a connector from the Toolbox. The toolbox method is available on request and a Phocas consultant must give the nominated users permission to run the connectors.
