Custom adapters

IMPORTANT: Consult Fusion support for guidance before creating custom adapters.

Custom adapters allow you to analyze and manage data that resides on systems outside of Fusion default support. A custom adapter allows you to build a connection between Fusion and any third-party data platform that offers programmatic connection using remote APIs or a client SDK.

You must create and deploy a dedicated Fusion processing agent service using the agent’s custom adapter framework. This allows on-premises agents to interact with the data using the source’s specific connectivity protocols. You will define the custom adapter properties required to instantiate, configure, and operate the custom adapter service

Custom adapters can be edited as needed. Any changes you make to the custom adapters affect existing sources and datasets based on the custom adapter.

Custom adapters that are associated with a source cannot be deleted. You must remove the association to the source (delete the source) before you can delete the custom adapter. If associations exist, you are notified when you attempt to delete the custom adapter.
