Configure Resources

Accelerators and recipes are a type of package. After you install an accelerator or a recipe, you need to configure all the dependent resources used by all the integrations in the package.

Dependent resources consist of connections, certificates (PGP keys), lookups, and libraries.

  • You can edit connections, certificates (PGP keys), lookups, and libraries. You must have administrator privileges to edit certificates.

  • You can replace connections and certificates in some packages. However, you can't replace them if an integration in the package is either active or locked. You can't replace them if they are included in a business or technical accelerator.

  • You can update integration property values for any integration in which properties have been defined.

  • You can add schedules to any integration that uses a Scheduled Orchestration style (also called pattern). These integrations run according to the schedule you define.

Editing a dependent resource impacts all integrations that use that resource. Replacing a dependent resource only impacts the integrations in the specific package.

To configure the resources for an accelerator or a recipe:

  1. Find the accelerator or recipe that you want to configure.
  2. Hover over the accelerator or recipe card, then click Configure Configure icon.

    The Configuration Editor page is displayed. The title bar includes the name of the accelerator or recipe, and indicates that you're working in a package. You can see how many Integrations, Connections, Certificates, Lookups, and Libraries are included in the package, and click the corresponding link to locate that resource on the page.

    Certificates

    Replace a connection or a certificate (PGP key) across all the integrations in a package.

    • You can replace a connection resource only with another resource of the same role (trigger, invoke, or trigger and invoke). In addition, the connection status must be Configured. You can't replace a connection with a connection whose status is Draft. If a compatible connection resource doesn't exist, a message is displayed.

    • You can replace a PGP key only with a key of the same type of key. For example, you can replace a public PGP key with another public PGP key, but not with a private PGP key.
