Pull connector fields

Populate the pull connector advanced settings fields to optimize event retrieval and synchronization based on specific requirements such as connection preferences, event frequency, and time zone settings.

Table 1. Advanced settings fields

Field	Description
Connected MID Server	Determine whether you want to have the system choose the optimal MID Server or choose a specific MID Server yourself. Perform only if you must make modifications to the MID Server otherwise leave it empty and let the system choose the optimal MID Server.
Event collection schedule (seconds)	Enter the frequency in seconds that indicates how often the system should check for new events from the external event source. The value can’t be lower than the minimum schedule property, which by default is 120 seconds.
Protocol	Defines the communication protocol used for retrieving events from external devices.
severity_by_state_type	Determines the severity level assigned to events based on their state type.
time_zone	Specifies the time zone used for recording and displaying event timestamps.
offset_min	Sets the time offset for event retrieval to ensure accurate synchronization.
Port	Verify the default values for your connector type such as port details or time formats and modify them as necessary. Default values from your connector are filled-in. Specifies the port number used for communication with external devices.
max_fetch_interval_min	Limits the maximum interval between event fetch operations.
initial_sync_in_days	Sets the duration for the initial synchronization process when retrieving historical data.
