Dataset Connectors

A Connector connects your collections to your page elements. It controls how visitors interact with the content in the collection, which collection items (rows) are displayed and how they are sorted and filtered. Connectors can link single elements to a collection, like a text box or image, they can also link tables or repeaters that display content with multiple elements in a preset layout. Connectors also allow you to store form submissions in a collection. You’ll also need to set permissions for the dataset. These permissions determine how page elements can interact with your collections. They are as follows: Read- only, Write-only, Read & Write.

The data in these data sets can be linked to items in the dynamic pages and this will save you having to constantly update pages that have the same layouts However, the dataset connector must be present on the page.
