If you’re new to Unstructured, read this note first.

Before you can create a destination connector, you must first sign up for Unstructured and get your Unstructured API key. After you sign up, the Unstructured user interface (UI) appears, which you use to get the key. To learn how, watch this 40-second how-to video.

After you create the destination connector, add it along with a source connector to a workflow. Then run the worklow as a job. To learn how, try out the hands-on Workflow Endpoint quickstart, go directly to the quickstart notebook, or watch the two 4-minute video tutorials for the Unstructured Python SDK.

You can also create destination connectors with the Unstructured user interface (UI). Learn how.

You are now ready to start creating a destination connector! Keep reading to learn how.

To use the Unstructured Workflow Endpoint to manage destination connectors, do the following:

  • To get a list of available destination connectors, use the UnstructuredClient object’s destinations.list_destinations function (for the Python SDK) or the GET method to call the /destinations endpoint (for curl or Postman).. Learn more.
  • To get information about a destination connector, use the UnstructuredClient object’s destinations.get_destination function (for the Python SDK) or the GET method to call the /destinations/<connector-id> endpoint (for curl or Postman). Learn more.
  • To create a destination connector, use the UnstructuredClient object’s destinations.create_destination function (for the Python SDK) or the POST method to call the /destinations endpoint (for curl or Postman). Learn more.
  • To update a destination connector, use the UnstructuredClient object’s destinations.update_destination function (for the Python SDK) or the PUT method to call the /destinations/<connector-id> endpoint (for curl or Postman). Learn more.
  • To delete a destination connector, use the UnstructuredClient object’s destinations.delete_destination function (for the Python SDK) or the DELETE method to call the /destinations/<connector-id> endpoint (for curl or Postman). Learn more.

To create or update a destination connector, you must also provide settings that are specific to that connector. For the list of specific settings, see:
