# Configure a Connector

You can configure IDOL NiFi Ingest connectors manually, or by using the guided setup feature.

TIP: If your data flow includes multiple processors for a single repository (for example `GetSharePointOData`, `FetchSharePointOData`, `ViewSharePointOData`, and so on) you can configure the `Get*` processor and then use the guided setup feature to copy the common properties to the other processors. This can save time because you do not need to repeatedly specify common properties, such as repository URLs.

To configure an IDOL NiFi Ingest Connector

1. Stop the processor, if it is running. To do this, right-click the processor and click Stop.

2. Right-click the processor and click Configure.

   The Configure Processor dialog box opens.

3. Click the Properties tab.

   NiFi displays a list of configuration parameters for the connector.

4. Configure the connector as necessary:

   - You can modify the configuration parameters manually.
   - Some connectors support guided setup. Click ADVANCED, then click the GUIDED SETUP tab and follow the on-screen instructions.
