Connections
A Connection is a specific, usable instance of an Integration. It represents a single, configured endpoint that a Flow can use as either a source or a destination.
To use an analogy:
An Integration is like your keychain for AWS, holding the master keys. A Connection is the specific key on that keychain for a single S3 bucket or a specific Redshift database.
For example, you might have a single Google OAuth Integration for your Google Account. From that Integration, you could create multiple Connections:
- A Connection for
marketing-dataGoogle Sheet. - A Connection for
sales-dataGoogle Sheet.
Each Flow requires a Source Connection and a Destination Connection to move data.
