# SailPoint MongoDB Cloud - Atlas Connector Documentation > MongoDB Cloud - Atlas Connector Documentation # Documentation # Connecting SailPoint and MongoDB Cloud - Atlas To connect SailPoint with MongoDB Cloud - Atlas, perform the following tasks: ## Adding the Source in SailPoint To connect to SailPoint, perform the following steps. Once the connection is made, you can configure it to meet your company's needs. > [!IMPORTANT] > > By default, the provisioning feature is **disabled**, and the connector only supports read-only operations. To support provisioning operations, you must manually enable the feature in the source configuration. **To configure a new source:** 1. Sign in to SailPoint. 2. Go to **Admin \> Connections \> Sources**. 3. Select **Create New**. 4. Search for the connector by entering the name in the search box, and then select **Actions**. 5. In the **Actions** dropdown list, select the setup method: - [**Express Setup**](<#configuring-a-source-using-express-setup>) - Quickly create a read-only connection to your target system by providing minimal configurations and authentication. On completion, aggregation is automatically started. > **Note** > > Express Setup supports Credential Providers. For information on supported credential providers and configuration, refer to [Credential Providers](). For more information, contact your SailPoint Customer Service Manager. - [**Standard Setup**](<#configuring-a-source-using-standard-setup>) - Provide detailed basic configuration to create the source. Once the source is created, continue with source setup. ### Configuring a Source Using Express Setup Express Setup minimizes the initial configuration process so you can quickly connect the application and immediately begin aggregating user account and entitlement data. 1. Review the directions and select **Start Express Setup**. 2. Review the pre-populated **Source Name**, **Source Owner**, and **Description**. To update, select **Edit**. > **Note** > > The source name must be unique. You can change these settings later in the source configuration. 3. Select **Virtual Appliance**. A virtual appliance is a Linux-based virtual machine that connects to your sources and apps using SailPoint APIs, connectors, and integrations. For more information about configuring and deploying virtual appliances, refer to [SailPoint Virtual Appliances](). 4. (Optional) If enabled for your organization, select the **Use a Credential Provider** checkbox to manage the source's authentication using a credential provider. > **Note** > > To add a Credential Provider in SailPoint, go to **Admin \> Connections \> Credential Providers**. For more information about credential providers, refer to [Credential Providers](). 5. Configure the authentication to allow SailPoint to connect to the source. For more information, refer to the **Connection Settings** section. 6. Select **Finish**. After a successful test connection, the system creates your source and prompts you to run an aggregation. - If you want to aggregate now, select **Aggregate**. - To see the latest account aggregation history, go to **Account Management \> Account Aggregation**. - To see the list of aggregated source accounts, go to **Account Management \> Accounts**. - If you want to aggregate later, select **Exit**. This returns you to the **Sources** page. Your new source is listed, but contains no accounts or aggregation history yet. ### Configuring a Source Using Standard Setup Use Standard Setup to configure the connector for full feature support. 1. In the **Source Name** field, enter a unique and descriptive name for your source. Source names cannot exceed 128 characters. 2. In the **Description** field, provide additional details about the source to help distinguish it from similar sources. This field allows a maximum of 2,000 characters. 3. In the **Source Owner** field, begin typing the name of an owner. Matches appear after you type two or more letters. For more information, refer to [Assigning a Source Owner](). 4. Under **Connection Type**, select **Direct Connection** or **Flat File**. - **Direct Connection** - A direct connection fetches data from the **Virtual Appliance Cluster** you choose as the application connector for the source. A direct connection configuration allows for real-time updates. For more information about configuring and deploying virtual appliances, refer to the [Virtual Appliance Reference Guide](). - **Flat File** - Select the flat file if no connector is available, or if another system restricts the connection. This option allows only reading and aggregating data as a generic/delimited application. Provisioning activity is unsupported, and additional configuration pages like connection settings and aggregation settings are unavailable. 5. If you selected **Direct Connection**, in **Virtual Appliance Cluster**, select the virtual appliance cluster that will be used as the application connector for the source. 6. (Optional) Select a governance group to grant its members [source]() or [role]() sub-admin level oversight of the source and its access. For more information, refer to [Creating and Managing Governance Groups](). 7. If this source represents a primary system containing your organization's personnel records, select the **Authoritative Source** checkbox. For more information, refer to [Creating Identity Profiles](). 8. Select **Continue**. The source is created, and you are navigated to the **Source Setup \> Base Configuration** page. Continue to configure your connected source there. ## Base Configuration Provide the base configuration parameters. Information you entered in the Create New Source dialog is automatically entered into the fields in the Base Configuration page. You can edit this information if necessary. 1. Enter a unique name and description for the source. 2. In the **Source Owner** dropdown list, select the identity that owns this source. - To find a source owner, begin entering their name. 3. In the **Virtual Appliance Cluster** dropdown list, select the virtual appliance to use when communicating with your organization's systems. For more information, refer to [SailPoint Virtual Appliances](). 4. (Optional) If enabled for your organization, select the **Use a Credential Provider** checkbox to manage the source's authentication using a credential provider. > **Note** > > To add a credential provider, go to **Admin \> Connections \> Credential Providers**. For more information about credential providers, refer to [Credential Providers](). 5. Configure the authentication to allow SailPoint to connect to the source. Refer to [Connection Settings](<#connection-settings>) for more information. 6. (Optional) In the **Governance Group for Source Management** dropdown list, select a governance group to associate with this source. For more information about governance groups, refer to [Associating Governance Groups with a Source](). 7. (Optional) Choose whether to enable or disable provisioning for the source. Provisioning is disabled by default. - **Enable Provisioning** - Set the toggle to **Enabled** to allow the source to create, update, and deactivate accounts in the connected source system. - **Disable Provisioning** - Set the toggle to **Disabled** to disable provisioning for the source. Disabling provisioning will prevent the creation, updating, or deactivating of accounts on this source. 8. Select **Save**. ## Connection Settings Provide the information required to connect and interact with the source. > [!NOTE] > > **Screenshot** > > [![alt text]()]() To configure connection settings, complete the following: 1. Enter the **API URL** for the Atlas API. 2. Enter the **Public Key** username for the Atlas API Key with programmatic access. 3. Enter the **Private Key** (password) for the Atlas API Key with programmatic access. 4. Select **Save**. ## Additional Settings > [!NOTE] > > **Screenshot** > > [![alt text]()]() Use the Additional Settings tab to configure optional settings, such as the page size and connection timeout. ### Page Size The page size defines the number of objects to fetch per page, when iterating over large numbers of objects. The default is 100. To configure the page size: 1. In the **Page Size** enter the desired value for the page size. 2. Select **Save**. ### Connection Timeout The connection timeout defines the amount of time allowed for a connection to be established. If a connection is not established within this time duration, the connector fails the connection. The default is 1 minute. 1. In the **Connection Timeout (in Minutes)** field, enter the desired value for the connection timeout in minutes. 2. Select **Save**. ## Aggregation Settings Define the scope of the Projects included in your aggregation processes. For more information about aggregation, refer to [Loading Account Data](). > [!NOTE] > > **Screenshot** > > [![alt text]()]() To configure your Project scope for aggregation, complete the following: 1. (Optional) In the **Include Projects** field, enter a list of project names to be included during aggregation. After each entry, press Enter to add it to a growing list. For example: - Project1 - Project2 2. (Optional) In the **Exclude Projects** field, enter a list of project names to be excluded during aggregation. After each entry, press Enter to add it to a growing list. For example: - Project1 - Project2 3. Select **Save**. ## Review and Test Perform a test to confirm the connection to SailPoint. 1. Go to **Review and Test**. 2. Confirm that the entries in each field are correct. If you note any mistakes, return to the section and make corrections. 3. Select **Test Connection**. ## SailPoint Application Onboarding SailPoint application onboarding enables you to easily onboard new applications and create sources following the successful onboarding of a discovery source. To use this feature, continue to **Discovered Applications** in the SailPoint user interface. For more information, refer to [Application Onboarding]() in the SailPoint SaaS documentation. # Integrating SailPoint with MongoDB Cloud - Atlas This guide is designed to give specific information about the requirements and field definitions needed to get a working instance of a MongoDB Cloud - Atlas connector. > [!NOTE] > > To view the latest features, enhancements, and fixes for all SaaS connectors, refer to the [SaaS Release Notes]() page. ## Supported Features The SailPoint MongoDB Cloud - Atlas connector supports the following features: - Aggregation of active MongoDB Cloud - Atlas users as accounts - Add and remove entitlements for Role group objects - Entitlement aggregation operations for Role group objects For more information on supported features, refer to [Source Features](). ### Revocation of Project Roles If you revoke all project roles from an Atlas User, then the user is deleted from one project or multiple projects based on the selection of roles for revocation. Note that roles may belong to one project or multiple projects. While removing Organization roles from a user, at least one Organization role must be kept as assigned. ## Supported Managed Systems The MongoDB Cloud - Atlas connector supports the MongoDB Atlas Cloud source. ## Prerequisites - Configure at least one [virtual appliance (VA) cluster]() and successfully test the connection. - MongoDB Atlas can only connect to a trusted IP address. Within Atlas, you must create a list of trusted IP addresses for all the VAs that can connect to your cluster. - An Atlas API key is required to grant programmatic access to the MongoDB Project. This Atlas API key acts as the service account and is used to manage database users in each Project under a single Organization. The following permissions are required: | Operation | Permission | | --- | --- | | Test Connection | Organization member
Project Read Only (For projects required to be managed) | | Account Aggregation | Organization member
Project Read Only (For projects required to be managed) | | Entitlement Aggregation | Organization member
Project Read Only (For projects required to be managed) | | Add/Remove Entitlement | Organization Owner | > **Note** > > If the list of managed Projects is long, assign *Organization Read Only* access instead of *Project Read Only* access for all Projects. This applies for Test Connection, Account Aggregation, and Group Aggregation processes. # Schema Reference The application schema is used to configure the objects returned from a connector. > [!NOTE] > > - The **Account Schema** tab is used to define the attributes for each object type in the application being configured. The schema attributes can be defined as **Entitlement** or **Multi-Valued**. Refer to [Managing Source Account Schemas]() for more information. > - The schema attributes that are not present by [default](<#default-account-schema>) must be defined as strings if not specified. The MongoDB Cloud - Atlas connector uses the following default correlation and object configurations. ## Default Account Schema Each source supports a variety of details, or attributes, about each user who has an account, such as their name, email address, manager name, and location. The set of account attributes each source stores and how they're organized is known as the account's *schema*. To best represent your data, you can configure sources to use an account schema matching the one you use in the external connector. Refer to [Managing Source Account Schemas]() for more information. ### Default Account ID SailPoint requires that certain attributes remain in your configuration. These attributes are referred to as *account IDs*. > [!CAUTION] > > Changing the attribute marked as the account ID after aggregating accounts can result in duplicate accounts being created. To avoid this, either reset the accounts on this source before editing the account ID attribute or edit the account ID attribute before aggregating accounts. > > To resolve issues caused by changing account IDs, reconfigure them to their default values. The following table lists the default account IDs for this connector: | Account ID | Schema Object Type | | --- | --- | | Id | Account | | Native Identity | Role | ### Default Account Attributes The MongoDB Cloud - Atlas connector supports the following default account schema attributes and customer configurable attributes. The attributes must be defined as strings if not specified. | Attribute Name | Description | | --- | --- | | Display Name | The user's display name | | Username | Username for authentication | | Id | A unique identifier for the Organization API Key or Atlas User. This is an Account ID which must not be changed. | | First Name | The user's first name / given name | | Last Name | The user's last name / family name | | Mobile Number | The user's mobile number | | Email Address | The user's email address | | Country | The user's country code | | Roles | Roles assigned to the user | # Enable Connector Logging This topic provides the steps needed to enable logging on SailPoint using REST APIs. > [!NOTE] > > This topic only applies to VA-based integrations. > [!NOTE] > > The examples provided might not match your configuration. Use the logging levels and logging classes reference at the bottom of the topic to configure your API responses to match your connector. This process is broken up into four steps: 1. Identify the Virtual Appliance (VA) cluster on which you want to enable logging. 2. Get the logging configuration for the existing VA cluster. 3. Update the VA cluster to enable logging levels. 4. Observe logging changes to the logging levels. ### Identify the Virtual Appliance Cluster Select the VA on which you need to enable logging using REST API. If you already know the VA application's `id`, proceed to [Get the Logging Configuration](<#get-the-logging-configuration>). 1. Make the following call to the REST API to return a list of available VA clusters: GET /v3/managed-clusters The REST API returns a response that looks similar to the following: ```json [ { "id": "2c9180866166b5b0016167c32ef31a66", "name": "Development Cluster", "description": "Development Cluster", "clientType": "CCG", "ccgVersion": "373_535_70.2.0", "pinnedConfig": true, "logConfiguration": null }, { "id": "2c9180846a93ce60016ab29f039944de", "name": "Cloud Cluster", "description": "Cloud Cluster", "clientType": "CCG", "ccgVersion": "373_535_70.2.0", "pinnedConfig": true, "logConfiguration": { "clientId": null, "durationMinutes": 60, "expiration": "2020-12-15T19:13:36.079Z", "rootLevel": "DEBUG", "logLevels": { "sailpoint.connector.ADLDAPConnector": "DEBUG" } } } ] ``` > **Note** > > The previous example code shows two VA clusters. One VA cluster has a log configuration and the other does not (refer to the `logConfiguration` value in each returned VA cluster). This is because one of the clusters already has logging enabled. This is just an example configuration, and your environment may not have logging enabled on a cluster. 2. Identify the VA cluster that you want to enable logging on by its name or description and record its `id` attribute. ### Get the Logging Configuration Get your selected VA's cluster logging configuration and identify the values you need to update. 1. Make the following call to the REST API to return the VA cluster's logging configuration. Replace `{id}` with the VA cluster's `id` attribute value recorded earlier. GET /v3/managed-clusters/{id}/log-config - If the VA doesn't have a logging configuration currently set, it returns `204 No Content` as a response. - If the VA has an existing logging configuration, it returns something similar to the following: ```json { "clientId": null, "durationMinutes": 60, "expiration": "2020-12-15T19:13:36.079Z", "rootLevel": "DEBUG", "logLevels": { "sailpoint.connector.ADLDAPConnector": "DEBUG" } } ``` You'll need to configure the following information in the response: - `durationMinutes` is the number of minutes logging should remain enabled. - `rootLevel` is the default level for all logs. For more information, refer to [Logging Levels](<#logging-levels>). - `logLevels` is a map object with logging classes as keys and logging levels as values. - For keys, refer to [Logging Classes](<#logging-classes>) for commonly used logging classes. - For a list of available values, refer to [Logging Levels](<#logging-levels>). ### Update Logging Configuration Update the VA cluster configuration returned by the REST API to update the logging settings as needed. 1. Make the following call to the REST API to update the VA cluster's logging configuration. Replace `{id}` with the VA cluster's `id` attribute value recorded earlier. PUT /v3/managed-clusters/{id}/log-config 2. Submit your configuration changes to the REST API in a JSON body. - If the VA cluster did not already have a logging configuration and you received a `204 No Content` response, you can create a new one. - If the VA returned a configuration, you can edit it to include the changes. The JSON body should be as follows: ```json { "durationMinutes": 60, "rootLevel": "DEBUG", "logLevels": { "sailpoint.connector.ADLDAPConnector": "DEBUG" } } ``` Consider the following as you edit the JSON: - `durationMinutes` is the number of minutes logging should remain enabled. - `rootLevel` is the default level for all logs. For more information, refer to [Logging Levels](<#logging-levels>). - `logLevels` is a map object with logging classes as keys and logging levels as values. - For keys, refer to [Logging Classes](<#logging-classes>) for commonly used logging classes. - For a list of available values, refer to [Logging Levels](<#logging-levels>). If the update was successful, the REST API should return a response similar to the following: ```json { "clientId": null, "durationMinutes": 60, "expiration": "2020-12-15T19:13:36.079Z", "rootLevel": "DEBUG", "logLevels": { "sailpoint.connector.ADLDAPConnector": "DEBUG" } } ``` ### Observe Logging Changes Approximately five minutes after you update the configuration, the VA cluster starts generating log files you can review. You can view the log files in **ccg.log**. ### References The tables in this reference section list information that can be helpful when creating the JSON body you'll use to configure the VA cluster's configuration file. #### Logging Levels | Logging Level | Description | | --- | --- | | ERROR | Designates error events that might still allow the connector to continue. | | WARN | Designates potentially harmful situations. | | INFO | Designates information messages that highlight process at a coarse-grain level. | | DEBUG | Very verbose. Fine grain logging levels used for development and debugging. | | TRACE | Most verbose. Finer grain logging levels than debugging. | #### Logging Classes | Connector | Logging Class | | --- | --- | | Active Directory | sailpoint.connector.ADLDAPConnector sailpoint.connector.LDAPConnector | | AIX | openconnector.connector.unix.AIXConnector openconnector.connector.unix.UnixConnector | | Amazon Web Services | logger.aws.name=openconnector.connector.aws logger.aws.level=trace logger.aws.additivity = false logger.aws.appenderRef.rolling.ref = STDOUT | | Atlassian Suite Cloud | sailpoint.connector.OpenConnectorAdapter openconnector.connector.atlassian.AtlassianConnector | | Atlassian Data Center | sailpoint.connector.OpenConnectorAdapter openconnector.connector.atlassian.AtlassianDataCenterConnector | | Microsoft Entra ID | sailpoint.connector.AzureADConnector | | Box | openconnector.connector.BoxNetConnector sailpoint.connector.OpenConnectorAdapter | | Cerner | openconnector.connector.CernerConnector sailpoint.connector.OpenConnectorAdapter | | Delimited File | logger.DelimitedFileConnector.name = sailpoint.connector.DelimitedFileConnector logger.DelimitedFileConnector.level = debug logger.DelimitedFileConnector.additivity = false logger.DelimitedFileConnector.appenderRef.rolling.ref = STDOUT | | Dropbox | openconnector.connector.DropBoxConnector sailpoint.connector.OpenConnectorAdapter | | Epic | openconnector.connector.EPICConnector sailpoint.connector.OpenConnectorAdapter | | GE Centricity | openconnector.connector.GECentricity sailpoint.connector.OpenConnectorAdapter | | Google Apps / G Suite | openconnector.connector.GoogleAppsDirect sailpoint.connector.OpenConnectorAdapter | | IBM i | openconnector.connector.IBMiConnector | | Lotus Domino | sailpoint.connector.LotusDomino | | JDBC | sailpoint.connector.JDBCConnector | | Sun One LDAP | sailpoint.connector.LDAPConnector | | Linux | openconnector.connector.unix.LinuxConnector sailpoint.connector.OpenConnectorAdapter sailpoint.connector.UnixConnector | | Microsoft Office365 | sailpoint.connector.Office365Connector | | Microsoft SQL Server | sailpoint.connector.mssql.serviceimpl.MSSQLServerConnectorV2 | | Okta | logger.openconnector.name = openconnector.connector.okta.OktaConnector logger.openconnector.level = debug logger.openconnector.additivity = false logger.openconnector.appenderRef.rolling.ref = STDOUT | | Oracle Database | sailpoint.connector.OracleDBConnector sailpoint.connector.JDBCConnector | | Oracle E-Business | sailpoint.connector.OracleEBSConnector sailpoint.connector.JDBCConnector | | Oracle Fusion HCM | openconnector.connector.oraclefusionhcm.OracleFusionHCMConnector sailpoint.connector.OpenConnectorAdapter | | Oracle HCM Cloud | sailpoint.connector.oraclehcmcloud.OracleHCMCloudConnector | | Oracle HRMS | sailpoint.connector.OracleAppsHRMSConnector sailpoint.connector.JDBCConnector | | Oracle Netsuite | openconnector.connector.netsuite.NetsuiteConnector | | PeopleSoft ERP | openconnector.connector.PeopleSoftConnector sailpoint.connector.OpenConnectorAdapter | | PeopleSoft HRMS | sailpoint.connector.PeopleSoftHRMSConnector | | RemedyForce | sailpoint.connector.ForceConnector | | RSA Authentication Manager | openconnector.connector.RSAConnector openconnector.connector.rsa.RSAHTTPClient sailpoint.connector.OpenConnectorAdapter | | Salesforce | sailpoint.connector.ForceConnector | | SAP Concur | openconnector.connector.sapconcur.SAPConcurConnector | | SAP -

For issues or errors that are not addressed in this connector guide, refer to the following resources for troubleshooting information: - [SailPoint Identity Services Documentation]() - [SailPoint Support Knowledge Base]() - [SailPoint Developer Community]() ## Test Connection Errors ### IP address not on whitelist The following error message displays during the Test Connection operations: ```javascript {"detail":"IP address 103.93.47.143 is not allowed to access this resource.","error":403,"errorCode":"IP_ADDRESS_NOT_ON_WHITELIST","parameters":["103.93.47.143"],"reason":"Forbidden"} ``` **Resolution** - Ensure that all the [Prerequisites]() are met, and that all the VA's IP addresses configured for the MongoDB Cloud - Atlas source are in the list of trusted IPs on the managed system. ### MongoDB - Password Bad Request: The required attribute was not specified Account creation fails when the password starts and ends with a dollar sign (`$`), resulting in the following error: ```javascript Error: openconnector.ConnectorException: {"detail":"The required attribute password was not specified.","error":400,"errorCode":"MISSING_ATTRIBUTE","parameters":["password"],"reason":"Bad Request"} ``` **Resolution** - The dollar sign (`$`) is a reserved character, serving as a placeholder in request bodies or parameters. Any value enclosed within double dollar signs (`$$`) is expected to be replaced with its corresponding value. Therefore, the password must not begin or end with a dollar sign (`$`). ## Entitlement Errors ### User does not add have user administrator role The following error message displays during Add/Remove Entitlement operations: ```javascript {"detail":"The currently logged in user does not have the user administrator role for any group, team, or organization containing user 5ed60bdb5e57f641091cf871.","error":401,"errorCode":"NOT_USER_ADMIN","parameters":["5ed60bdb5e57f641091cf871"],"reason":"Unauthorized"} ``` **Resolution** - Verify that the service account has sufficient permissions. ### Can't demote last owner of the group The following error displays during Remove Entitlement operations: ```javascript Cannot demote the last owner of the group. ``` **Resolution** - Ensure that you have assigned at least one Project Owner. ## Other Errors ### Error in Revoking Role The following error message displays when revoking all organization roles: ```javascript Cannot remove all roles from the Atlas user. ``` **Resolution** - Ensure that you are not deleting all the organization roles. # Timeout Errors and Settings Timeout errors might occur when SailPoint is waiting for a response from the Virtual Appliance (VA). These errors are applicable to all connectors and tend to occur during the setup of sources or when sources are down. This document is designed to give specific information that can be used to resolve these errors. Each timeout attribute has a default time value that is listed in seconds or minutes. Increasing the time value may resolve the error as it will allow for longer communication time between the two systems, thus avoiding the timeout error. > [!IMPORTANT] > > Add the necessary attributes or values before performing the "replace" operation, as missing attributes will cause the operation to fail. To increase the communication time, increase the value of the appropriate timeout attribute. Then submit the change to the VA using the SailPoint REST API. > [!NOTE] > > For more information on SailPoint's REST APIs, refer to [Best Practices: REST API Authentication]() and [REST API - Update Source (Partial)]() in the SailPoint Developer Community. ### aggregateTimeout **Description:** This parameter is set for the aggregation timeout, measured in seconds. **Resolution:** Increase the `aggregateTimeout` value gradually to optimize aggregation. Start with 180, then increase to 600, 900, and finally 1800. The maximum value is 3600 seconds. For example: If your current time value is 180 seconds, update the `aggregateTimeout` attribute as follows: ```json [ { "op": "replace", "path": "/connectorAttributes/aggregateTimeout", "value": 600 } ] ``` ### healthCheckTimeout **Description:** This parameter is set for the test connection and health check timeout. **Resolution:** The default value is 30 seconds. If the timeout error continues, increase the value in 15 second increments and try again. For example: If your current time value is 30 seconds, update the `healthCheckTimeout` attribute as follows: ```json [ { "op": "replace", "path": "/connectorAttributes/healthCheckTimeout", "value": 45 } ] ``` ### provisioningTimeout **Description:** This parameter is set for provisioning timeout. **Resolution:** Increase the `provisioningTimeout` value gradually to optimize provisioning. Start with 180, then increase to 360, and finally 600. The maximum value is 600 seconds. For example: If your current time value is 180 seconds, update the `provisioningTimeout` attribute as follows: ```json [ { "op": "replace", "path": "/connectorAttributes/provisioningTimeout", "value": 360 } ] ``` ### timeout **Description:** This parameter is set for pass-through authentication timeout. **Resolution:** The default value is 15 seconds. If the timeout error continues, increase this value in 15 second increments and try again. For example: If your current time value is 15 seconds, update the `timeout` attribute as follows: ```json [ { "op": "replace", "path": "/connectorAttributes/timeout", "value": 30 } ] ``` ### apiTimeout **Description:** This parameter is set for API time tracking; customers can check it using an external tool. **Resolution:** The default value is 60 seconds. If the error continues, increase the value by 15 second increments and try again. For example: If your current time value is 60 seconds, update the `apiTimeout` attribute as follows: ```json [ { "op": "replace", "path": "/connectorAttributes/apiTimeout", "value": "75" } ] ``` ### timeoutInSeconds **Description:** This parameter helps prevent the VA from waiting indefinitely for an API response, ensuring efficient handling of API requests. For example: If your current time value is 30 seconds, update the `timeoutInSeconds` attribute as follows: ```json [ { "op": "replace", "path": "/connectorAttributes/timeoutInSeconds", "value": "15" } ] ```
