Adobe Suite Source connections API

Source connections create and manage a connection to the internal source from where data is exported. For destination connections, the source connection can be either the Experience Platform Profile Store or the Experience Platform Data Lake. Source connections contain information like data source, data format, and the source connection ID needed to create a dataflow. A source connection instance is specific to a tenant and organization.

Where this information came from

This is an independent, third-party profile of Adobe Suite Source connections API, published by API Evangelist. We do not operate, host, resell, or support these APIs, and we are not affiliated with or endorsed by the company unless stated above. Everything here is built from publicly available information — the company's own site, developer portal, documentation, public repositories, and the specifications it publishes for public use. Nothing is obtained by breaching a system, defeating an access control, or using credentials.

The Kin Score and Agent Readiness rating are independently calculated assessments of a company's public API artifacts, scored against a published rubric. They are not certifications, endorsements, security assessments, or audits.

Corrections, re-scores, and removal are free — no partnership or purchase required, and you do not need to justify the request. A removed company is recorded as unrated, never scored zero for having asked. Acknowledgement within one business day; removal within two.
