        4. The remaining sections will be filled in later, so scroll down to the bottom of the page and click on the [Done] button.
        5. Click on Explore and select Use the Data Catalog.
        6. Click on the name of your newly-created dataset to see its properties/definition.
        7. Remember the Dataset ID and External ID, as they will be used in later steps.
        1. Click on Integrate and select Monitor Extractors.
        2. Click on the [Create extraction pipeline] button.
        3. When creating the extraction pipeline, fill in the fields shown below using the to-be-determined naming convention before clicking on the [Create] button.
        4. The details for this Extractor pipeline will be filled in later; for now, capture the External ID and Extraction Pipeline ID.
  2. Register an Extractor Instance in the DataMosaix Project.
    1. From the FT DataMosaix application, open the Management Console’s [Extractor Info] tab.
    2. Click on the [Add] icon to start the Extractor Definition process.
    3. Fill out the “Extractor Info Detail” form as shown below, using the to-be-determined naming convention before clicking on the [Save and Create Credentials] button.
