Depending on the type of connector, they can have multiple different functions. For instance Amazon S3, that is both a data source and asset delivery location. You may be sourcing your Job data from an S3 location while also delivering images there once they have been completed.
Types of Connectors

We have the following Data Source Methods:
- AmazonS3
