# Send Data to Vertica

To send documents to a Vertica database, follow these steps.

To send data to Vertica

1. Stop the connector.
2. Open the connector’s configuration file in a text editor.

3. In the `[Ingestion]` section, set the following parameters:

   `EnableIngestion` | To enable ingestion, set this parameter to `true`.
   `IngesterType` | To send data to a Vertica database, set this parameter to `Indexer`.

   For example:

       [Ingestion]
       EnableIngestion=TRUE
       IngesterType=Indexer

4. In the `[Indexing]` section, set the following parameters:

   `IndexerType` | To send data to a Vertica database, set this parameter to `Library`.
   `LibraryDirectory` | The directory that contains the library to use to index data.
   `LibraryName` | The name of the library to use to index data. You can omit the `.dll` or `.so` file extension. Set this parameter to `verticaIndexer`.
   `ConnectionString` | The connection string to use to connect to the Vertica database.
   `TableName` | The name of the table in the Vertica database to index the documents into. The table must be a flex table and must exist before you start indexing documents. For more information, see Prepare the Vertica Database.

   For example:

       [Indexing]
       IndexerType=Library
       LibraryDirectory=indexerdlls
       LibraryName=verticaIndexer
       ConnectionString=DSN=VERTICA
       TableName=my_flex_table
