# Trigger connector sync

`POST /contents/v1/connectors/{connector_id}/sync`

Queues a new synchronization run for an **investment_research** or **sharepoint** connector. For **investment_research**, send a JSON body with **`date_limit`** (calendar date, `YYYY-MM-DD`) so the broker sync includes research from that date onward according to platform rules. For **sharepoint**, send an empty JSON body (`{}`). Only content not already ingested will be synced.

## Path parameters

- `connector_id` string, uuid, required

## Request body

- ConnectorSyncRequest — Body for **POST /contents/v1/connectors/{connector_id}/sync**. For **investment_research** connectors, send **`date_limit`**. For **sharepoint** connectors, send an empty object (`{}`).
  - `date_limit` string, date — Calendar date (`YYYY-MM-DD`). Required for **investment_research** connectors; retriggers broker synchronization including research from this date forward per platform rules. Must be omitted for **sharepoint** connectors.

## Response `200`

Sync request was accepted and queued for the connector.

- ConnectorSyncResponse — Acknowledgement after a sync trigger is accepted.
  - `connector_id` string, uuid, required — Connector that was targeted.
  - `date_limit` string, date — Echo of the requested date limit. Returned only for **investment_research** connectors.
  - `status` string, required — Processing state of the request (for example `accepted` when queued).

## Other responses

- `400` — Invalid request (e.g. unsupported connector type, missing or invalid `date_limit` for **investment_research**, or a non-empty body for **sharepoint**).
- `401` — Unauthorized - Invalid or missing API key.
- `404` — No connector found with this ID, or the user does not have access.
