Adapters and data sources

CADMATIC eShare can be integrated with various relational database management systems, file systems, and online services, which allows project-related data to be retrieved from multiple sources.

An administrator must define the required adapters that specify how to connect to a specific target system. Adapter settings are specific to a project, but you can copy settings from one adapter to another by exporting and importing them as text. An administrator can also disable an existing adapter configuration to prevent the system from using that adapter.

Each adapter configuration must have one or more data source configurations that specify what kind of data the adapter should retrieve.
