What is the default tenant?

The default tenant is the administrative tenant used by you, the user.

Hotglue refers to the administrative tenant as default because:

  • In a Read Flow, your tenants will default to using the default tenant’s linked target
  • In a Write Flow, your tenants will default to using the default tenant’s linked source
  • In a V2 Bidirectional Flow, your tenants will default to using the default tenant’s linked source and/or target.

Support sources, targets and connectors

Before your tenants can link a connector with their own credentials, you must link that connector within that flow using the default tenant.

Linking with the default tenant creates a supported source for that flow. Similarly when you link V1 Targets and V2 Connectors with your default tenant, you create supported targets and supported connectors respectively.

Billing

The default tenant is not counted in your billed active tenant count.
