How it works

The Egnyte connector pulls in files stored in Egnyte. The connector indexes:
  • File name
  • File type
  • File contents
New files are automatically pulled every 10 minutes.

Setting up

Egnyte Application + Hymalaia Environment Variables

EGNYTE_DOMAIN=your_egnyte_subdomain # e.g., "app4hymalaia"

EGNYTE_CLIENT_SECRET=your_client_secret
  1. Restart your Hymalaia instance to apply the environment variables.
