Retrieve Information from GuideWire

To automatically retrieve content from GuideWire, create a new fetch task by following these steps. The connector runs each fetch task automatically, based on the schedule that is defined 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. Set at least one of the following configuration parameters:

    PolicyCenterUrl The base URL for the GuideWire Policy Center.
    ClaimCenterUrl The base URL for the GuideWire Claim Center.
  2. Set the following configuration parameters:

    BasicUsername The user name to use to access the GuideWire API.
    BasicPassword The password to use to access the GuideWire API.
  3. (Optional) If a proxy server is required to access the repository, set the following parameters.

    ProxyHost The host name or IP address of the proxy server.
    ProxyPort The port of the proxy server.
    ProxyUsername (Optional) The user name to use to authenticate with the proxy server.
    ProxyPassword (Optional) The password to use to authenticate with the proxy server.
  4. (Optional) For a list of configuration parameters that you can set to customize the connector, see Content Selection.
  5. Save and close the configuration file.
