Sources and targets in Jitterbit Design Studio

Sources

A source defines properties of the system that Jitterbit connects to and retrieves data from. The system properties vary depending on the type of source you choose. Jitterbit supports these data types as sources:

Targets

A target defines the properties of a system that Jitterbit needs to connect to and post data to. The system properties vary depending on the type of target you choose. Jitterbit supports these target types:

Compressed sources and targets

File compression functionality is available for Jitterbit File Share, FTP Site, Local File, and Temporary Storage source and target files.

Note

File compression has been implemented as of Harmony version 8.9. If you are using a version 8.9 or later private agent or a Jitterbit cloud agent group, use file compression as described for the particular source or target; do not use either the Zip Archive or Unzip plug-ins. (For private agents earlier than version 8.9, you can use the Zip Archive and Unzip plug-ins for compression and decompression.)
