Connections
Connector architecture
Understand provider definitions, platform configuration, member authorization, and source ingestion.
Updated 2026-07-24
Connection layers
- 1A provider definition describes the connector and supported capabilities.
- 2A platform administrator configures and enables it.
- 3An eligible organization or instructor authorizes its own account.
- 4A product workflow uses the permitted capability, such as selecting a course source.
Capability first
A connected status does not automatically mean that every provider capability is available in Course Studio. Product workflows are released separately and should state their availability clearly.
