  - start
```
public void start()
           throws ConnectorCheckedException
```
    Indicates that the connector is completely configured and can begin processing. This call can be used to register with non-blocking services.
    
    Specified by:
    
    start in interface IntegrationConnector
    
    Overrides:
    
    start in class BasicFilesMonitorIntegrationConnectorBase
    
    Throws:
    
    ConnectorCheckedException - there is a problem within the connector.
  - refresh
```
public void refresh()
             throws ConnectorCheckedException
```
    Requests that the connector does a comparison of the metadata in the third party technology and open metadata repositories. Refresh is called when the integration connector first starts and then at intervals defined in the connector's configuration as well as any external REST API calls to explicitly refresh the connector.
    
    Throws:
    
    ConnectorCheckedException - there is a problem with the connector. It is not able to refresh the metadata.
