# Data sources

> API upload vs scheduled Connector steps

Not every entity is loaded through Connector API. Some data may arrive from **other sources** (for example, scheduled jobs that run at fixed times).

## Current behavior

If an entity is configured to be loaded **via API**, it **does not participate** in scheduled workflows that run at specific hours. Those schedules apply only to entities loaded from their default source.

This avoids duplicate or conflicting loads for the same step.

## What you need to configure with support

Before integration, specify for each workflow step (task type):

* which steps will be sent **via Connector API**;
* which steps will come from **another source** (internal Connector schedule, database export, etc.).

Example:

| Step (task type)            | Source                        |
| --------------------------- | ----------------------------- |
| `receipts`, `receipt-items` | Connector API                 |
| `products`, `stores`        | Scheduled Connector (nightly) |
| `stocks`                    | Connector API                 |

Support uses this mapping to enable the correct entities for your token and to exclude API-loaded steps from hourly schedules.

If your data source mix changes, contact support before changing what you upload through the API.
