The External Content Connectors application helps organizations bring external data repositories into AI Search, offering a seamless and secure way to unify content across systems. With support for ServiceNow documentation and external platforms like Atlassian Confluence Cloud, Microsoft SharePoint Online and more, users can access both internal and external data in one cohesive search experience.
A dedicated, user-friendly UI makes it easy for administrators to manage the entire process—from configuring connections and setting up crawls to monitoring performance and reviewing results. Flexible options allow you to define crawl schedules, refine content inclusion and exclusion rules, and map user permissions effortlessly, ensuring only authorized access to data.
