Connecting to HTTPS
Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS) is an extension of the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP). It uses encryption for secure communication over a computer network.
Publisher can connect to data accessible through public HTTPS URLs. This connection type enables you to aggregate files from multiple web locations into a single data source.
Configuration Process
Initial Setup
From the Publisher interface, select "Data Sources" in the navigation bar and click "Connect Data Source". Choose "HTTPS" from the available connectors.
URL Configuration
Enter your file URLs in the input field using these formatting rules:
Add one URL per line
Lines starting with '#' are treated as comments and ignored
Empty lines are ignored
Lines starting with '@' reference external URL list files, which Publisher will retrieve and process using the same formatting rules
Update Settings
Choose how frequently Publisher checks for changes to your HTTPS resources:
Select a schedule (daily, hourly, etc.)
Option to configure scheduling later
Finalizing Setup
