DryvIQ is built on the concept of connections. Authenticated connections are accounts that have been verified with the cloud-based or network-based platform based platform when created. The connection can be made using a specific user account (typically an email address) and its corresponding password , or, where supported, the connection can be made using OAuth 2.0 authorization (where a token is generated based on the granting authorization granted to DryvIQ through a user login). This authorization This authorization allows DryvIQ access to the user's drive information (files and folderfolders) on the platformthe platform.
Connections “connect” to a platform as a specific user account. The user account requires the proper permissions to the platform to read/, write/, update, and/or delete the content , according to what the actions the DryvIQ job is to perform. The The connector user account should also be set up so the password does not expire; otherwise, the connection will no longer be able to access the platform until the connection it has been refreshed with the new password.
A connection is made to the source platform, and another connection is made to the destination platform. Next, a job is created to tie connect the two platforms together. When When DryvIQ connects to a content platform, it does so by using uses the publicly available Application Programming Interface (API) for the specific that platform. This ensures that DryvIQ is “playing by the rules” for each platform.
