Creating Connections

You must create connections before using the connectors in a flow. TIBCO Flogo® Enterprise uses the configuration provided in these connections to connect to the respective app, data sources, systems, or SaaS.

Before you begin You must have valid accounts for the SaaS apps to which you want to connect.
To create a connection, click the Connections tab on the TIBCO Flogo® Enterprise page.
To create a connection using a connector tile:
  1. If this is the first connection you are creating, click the Create connection link. For subsequent connections, click the Create button on the Connections page.
  2. Click the connector tile for which you want to create a connection.
  3. Follow the instructions to configure the connection when prompted. For details on the connection dialog, refer to the specific connector documentation. You can do so by clicking the specific connector on the Supported Flogo Connectors page
Note:

  • You cannot use the same connection for multiple apps in Visual Studio Code. A connection is specific to a single app.

  • You can have a maximum of four active Salesforce connections for one user at any time. If you create more than four connections for the same user, the first connection that you created gets deactivated. This limit is enforced by Salesforce.
  • Make sure that the pop-up blocker in your browser is configured to always allow pop-ups from an app site. On macOS, clicking the link to the site results in the connection details page being unresponsive, so make sure to select the radio button for "Always allow pop-ups from <site>".
  • Ensure that your app does not have unused connection(s). All connections within the app(used or unused) are initialized and started at runtime during app startup.
