Intro

MindTouch is a document content management system that helps you organize your documentation so users can easily find it. To learn more about the MindTouch API, visit their page (https://success.mindtouch.com/Soluti…_Documentation ). You connect to your MindTouch account in the Data Center. This topic discusses the fields and menus that are specific to the MindTouch connector user interface. General information for adding DataSets, setting update schedules, and editing DataSet information is discussed in Adding a DataSet Using a Connector.

The components of the other panes on this page, Scheduling, and Name & Describe Your DataSet, are universal across most connector types and are discussed in greater length in Adding a DataSet Using a Connector.
