# Retrieve Information from Vantara

To automatically retrieve information from Vantara, create a new fetch task by following these steps. The connector runs each fetch task automatically, based on the schedule that is configured in the configuration file.

To create a new Fetch Task

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

3. In the `[FetchTasks]` section of the configuration file, specify the number of fetch tasks using the `Number` parameter. If you are configuring the first fetch task, type `Number=1`. If one or more fetch tasks have already been configured, increase the value of the `Number` parameter by one (1). Below the `Number` parameter, specify the names of the fetch tasks, starting from zero (0). For example:

       [FetchTasks]
       Number=1
       0=MyTask

4. Below the `[FetchTasks]` section, create a new TaskName section. The name of the section must match the name of the new fetch task. For example:

       [FetchTasks]
       Number=1
       0=MyTask

       [MyTask]

1. In the new section, set the following configuration parameters:

   `VantaraAPIURL` | The base URL for the Vantara REST API.
   `UserName` | The user name to use for requests to the API.
   `Password` | The password to use for requests to the API.

2. (Optional) There are additional parameters that you can set to choose the items that you want to synchronize. For information about these parameters, refer to the Vantara Connector Reference.

3. Save and close the configuration file.

   You can now start the connector.
