| User Permissions Needed |                                                             |
| ----------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------- |
| To create a connection: | System Admin profile or Data Cloud Architect permission set |

Before you begin:

- Enable the Beta connector through the feature manager. See [Enable Data 360 Features](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=data.c360_a_feature_manager.htm&type=5).
- Verify your admin has enabled firewalls on the system you want Data 360 to connect to by including these [IP addresses](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=data.c360_a_data_cloud_ip_address_allowlist.htm&type=5) to your allowlists.

1.  In Salesforce, click **Setup**, and select **Data Cloud Setup**.

2.  Under External Integrations, select **Other Connectors**.

3.  Click **New**.

4.  On the Source tab, select **Redis** and click **Next**.

5.  Enter a connection name, connection API name, and provide the authentication and connection details.

6.  For Authentication, provide the password to authenticate the user.

7.  For Connection, provide the URL and port.

    1.  Provide the URL in this format: {subdomain}.ec2.cloud.redislabs.com or {subdomain}.amazonaws.com. Subdomain can include multiple subdomains separated by a period.

    2.  If your Redis server is running on a port other than the default (6379), you can update with the port that the server is running on.

        **note:** To learn more about connecting with Redis, review their [documentation](https://redis.io/docs/latest/operate/rc/security/access-control/data-access-control/default-user/#:~:text=When%20you%20create%20a%20Redis,of%20the%20database%20details%20screen).

8.  To review your configuration, click **Test Connection**.

9.  Click **Save**.

After the connector details are accepted, the connection is created and listed under Connectors. You can now create data streams.
