Custom connector: reading account-specific tokens from DB? #28348
-
|
Hi there! I’m developing a connector with CDK to get data from an API. The connector is designed so that we can set up each Source with a different accountID; for an accountID, multiple user tokens may be available, and they are stored in a database. My question is: is it okay for my connector to read tokens from my database, and rotate them in each sync? Will this be considered a bad practice? or is it something expected when developing a connector? |

The best path probably would be to have a API endpoint in your application to get the tokens, if isn't possible probably you can customize CDK functions to hit the database and get the new tokens. |

thank you for the insights! so that way, we can leverage the sub-stream feed the tokens from our API endpoint to the sub-streams (other API endpoints). |
