Apache Kafka ConnectorUpdateConfig
Update a Kafka Connect connector's configuration
Replaces the entire configuration of an existing connector, restarting its tasks with the new config. Connect creates the connector if it doesn't already exist. Fails with the API's error body verbatim if config fails the connector plugin's own validation.

Properties
config *Requiredobject
Connector configuration
Replaces the connector's entire configuration; must include connector.class and any property required by that connector plugin.
connectUrl *Requiredstring
Kafka Connect REST API base URL
For example http://connect: 8083. Kafka Connect has no dedicated Java admin client — every operation goes through this REST API.
connectorName *Requiredstring
Connector name
headers object
Additional HTTP headers
Sent on every request to the Connect REST API. Useful when the worker sits behind a reverse proxy or expects a bearer token, e.g. Authorization: Bearer ....
password string
Basic auth password
pluginDefaultsRef Non-dynamicstring
Reference (ref) of the pluginDefaults to apply to this task.
username string
Basic auth username
Required together with password when the Connect REST API is protected with HTTP basic auth. Leave both unset to call an unauthenticated worker — no Authorization header is sent in that case.
Outputs
config object
Effective connector configuration, as accepted by Connect
connectorName string
Connector name
taskIds array
Task ids provisioned by Connect for this connector
