Info

In addition to the above methods, you can enable a connector by creating a configuration file in the <MI_HOME>/repository/deployment/server/synapse-configs/default/imports directory with the following configurations. Replace the value of the name property with the name of your connector, and name the configuration file {org.wso2.carbon.connector}<CONNECTOR_NAME>.xml (for example, {org.wso2.carbon.connector}salesforce.xml). 

    <import xmlns="http://ws.apache.org/ns/synapse"
    name="salesforce"
    package="org.wso2.carbon.connector"
    status="enabled"/>
