### Managing Existing Connectors

Once you've added connectors, you can manage them from the Connectors table:

### Supported Connectors

Waterflai supports several types of connectors, including:

Each connector type has its own specific configuration requirements. Be sure to have the necessary credentials and information ready when setting up a new connector.

### Best Practices

1. **Security**: Store API keys and sensitive information securely.
2. **Testing**: After adding a connector, test the connection by creating a sample collection.
3. **Monitoring**: Regularly check your connector status to ensure continued access to your data sources.
4. **Documentation**: Keep track of the purpose and contents of each connector for easier management.
