You can use the xBase connector from the CData Sync application to capture data from xBase and move it to any supported destination. To do so, you need to add the connector, authenticate to the connector, and complete your connection.

Add the xBase Connector

To enable Sync to use data from xBase, you first must add the connector, as follows:

1. Open the Connections page of the Sync dashboard.

2. Click Add Connection to open the Select Connectors page.

3. Click the Sources tab and locate the xBase row.

4. Click the Configure Connection icon at the end of that row to open the New Connection page. If the Configure Connection icon is not available, click the Download Connector icon to install the xBase connector. For more information about installing new connectors, see Connections.

Authenticate to xBase

After you add the connector, you need to set the required properties.

• Connection Name - Enter a connection name of your choice.

• Data Source - Enter the path to the folder that contains your DBF files.

  Note: If you do not enter a path, Sync assigns a reference to the current directory (./) automatically.

Complete Your Connection

To complete your connection:

1. Define advanced connection settings on the Advanced tab. (In most cases, though, you should not need these settings.)

2. Click Create & Test to create your connection.
