Configuring data sources

Administrators can configure data sources that the RI Platform can access. Sensitive information, such as access tokens, are stored in a secret manager service built using Hashicorp Vault.

Supported data sources

The RI Platform supports the following data sources.

These sources can only be configured when deploying an RI Platform instance:
