Am I reading the right user guide?
Certain connectors have more than one user guide. It depends on the environment's setup and on the connector's available releases (new vs. older revisions).
To access the user guide that is relevant to your environment, simply click on the "How to connect" button located on the connector's setup page. By doing so, you will be directed to the user guide that aligns with your specific environment, ensuring relevancy and accuracy.
Pre-requisite
The organization must be entitled to API access
IMPORTANT NOTE: Users can choose between a User API key (potentially covering multiple organizations) and having distinct keys per organization.
To work around this limitation, configure a user account that does not have this polling restriction.
