Extractors

Extractors connect to source systems and push data in its original format to Cognite Data Fusion (CDF) as part of the data integration workflow. In FactoryTalk DataMosaix, you can extract data by registering an extractor from the available source types to extract data.

You can also create custom extractors if your source type cannot be use with any of the available extractors. Select a custom extractor to get started.

The following extractors are supported by the configuration UI. Other extractors are supported using the Customer/Other extractor type.
