Blob uploads are used to install models, lookup lists, JDBC drivers, connectors, and more. ## Blob Types A `resourceType` query parameter can be used to specify the a blob type. For example, specify `plugin:connector` when uploading a connector, like this: ```bash wrap theme={"dark"} curl -H 'content-type:application/zip' -X PUT 'fusion-host:{api-port}/api/blobs/myplugin?resourceType=plugin:connector' --data-binary @myplugin.zip ``` The complete list of valid values for `resourceType` is below: | Type | Description | | ------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | | `banana` | A Banana [dashboard](/docs/4/fusion-server/concepts/dashboards/overview) | | `catalog` | An [analytics catalog](/docs/4/fusion-server/reference/api/catalog-api) | | `driver:jdbc` | A [JDBC Driver uploaded to Fusion Server](#upload-a-jdbc-driver-to-fusion-server) | | `file:js-index` | A JavaScript file for use with a [Managed Javascript index stage](/docs/4/fusion-server/reference/pipeline-stages/indexing/managed-javascript-index-stage). | | `file:js-query` | A JavaScript file for use with a [Managed Javascript query stage](/docs/4/fusion-server/reference/pipeline-stages/query/managed-javascript-query-stage). | | `file` | Any uploaded file, such as from the [Quickstart](#quickstart) or the [Index Workbench](/docs/4/fusion-server/concepts/indexing/datasources/index-workbench). | | `model:ml-model` | A [machine learning model](/docs/4/fusion-ai/concepts/machine-learning/machine-learning-models) (Fusion AI only) | | `model:open-nlp` | An [OpenNLP model](/docs/4/fusion-ai/reference/index-pipeline-stages/opennlp-ner-extractor-index-stage) (Fusion AI only) | | `other` | A blob of unknown type If no `resourceType` is specified on upload, "other" is assigned by default. | | `plugin:connector` | A [Fusion 4.x connector](#install-a-connector-fusion-4-x) | The JDBC connector fetches documents from a relational database via SQL queries. Under the hood, this connector implements the Solr [DataImportHandler (DIH)](https://wiki.apache.org/solr/DataImportHandler) plugin. Fusion stores JDBC drivers in the blob store. You can upload a driver using the Fusion UI or the Blob Store API. * The JDBC V1 connector is supported in Fusion releases 5.3 and earlier. * The JDBC V2 connector is supported in Fusion releases 5.4 and later. ## How to upload a JDBC driver using the Fusion UI 1. In the Fusion UI, navigate to **System** > **Blobs**. 2. Click **Add**. 3. Select **JDBC Driver**.\ The "New 'JDBC Driver' Upload" panel appears.
