Creating Connectors

Modified on Sat, 21 Oct 2023 at 11:04 AM

When you wish to integrate Projectal with another software tool used in your company, you will need to have a connector between these Projectal and the other tool.


A connector is a small software application that sits between Projectal and your other software tool.  The connector access data from Projectal and access data from your other software tool.


You have great flexibility with connectors.  You can have connectors that just write data retrieved from your other software tool into Projectal.  Or, you can have connectors that write data retrieved from Projectal into other your software tool.  Or, you can connectors that send data back and forth between Projectal and your other software tool.
