Elastic's content connectors allow you to extract, transform, index, and sync data from third-party applications including Github, PagerDuty, Jira, OpsGenie, Teams, Google Drive, Slack, email, and more. To see a complete list of the available connectors, follow the setup instructions below.

## Setup
{{stack}} supports two deployment methods: Elastic managed, and self-managed. {{sec-serverless}} only supports Elastic managed deployments. Self-managed deployments require you to manage the {{elastic-agent}} that forwards data to Elastic and allow you to customize the connector's code, whereas Elastic managed deployments use agentless technology and do not allow customization.

- **Scheduling**: Define when data from this connector gets synced, and set up document level security. A `Full content sync` deletes existing data in your index before fetching from your data source again. An `Incremental content sync` fetches updated data only, without deleting existing data.
- **Configuration**: Edit the connector's data source-specific configuration.
