  5. Copy the configuration shown in the log into a local file.

  6. Validate that the new configuration contains all the relevant keys compared with the previous version of the connector configuration.

    1. See Source Configuration Settings and Sink Configuration Settings for descriptions and examples of the new configuration options.

    2. If migrating the Source component, make note of the neo4j.start-from.value that has been set to the last checked offset.

    3. Replace the sensitive values.

      Sensitive values in the original configuration are not printed in the migrated configuration. These keys need to be filled in with the appropriate values. The affected configuration keys are neo4j.authentication.basic.password and neo4j.authentication.kerberos.ticket.
  7. Follow the Quickstart for Confluent Cloud to upload the new 5.1 Connector plugin.

  8. Create a Source or Sink instance.

  9. Copy the migrated configuration from the local file into the Custom Configuration JSON section, and check that it is correct.

  10. Continue with the steps in the Quickstart guide.

  11. Once the connector is up and running, validate it is successfully running.
