createConnection
Establish a connection to cloud storage sources like Notion or Google Drive to authorize document ingestion into knowledge bases.
Instructions
Creates a new connection to a specific source. The connector parameter should be a valid SourceSync connector enum value. The clientRedirectUrl parameter is optional and can be used to specify a custom redirect URL for the connection. This will give you a authorization url which you can redirect the user to. The user will then be asked to pick the documents they want to ingest.
