# Use the Connector

This section describes how to retrieve data from a file system. You can configure the connector to retrieve files that match specific criteria. For example, you can retrieve files that match a specific file type or were modified after a specific date.

To retrieve data from a file system, run the `synchronize` fetch action. You can do this manually, or by creating a fetch task in the connector’s configuration file. The connector runs fetch tasks automatically, based on a schedule that you define.
