How To Publish Mule Custom Connector to Anypoint Exchange Using Maven

Steps to Publish the Custom Connector

To construct the elements of a Maven POM file, you need to determine your organization ID:

1. Log into Anypoint Platform and click Access Management.
2. Click the organization name for the top level or a business group, and view your Organization ID in the Organization Info screen.
3. Copy the organization ID.
4. Modify the groupId of the Maven project to be your Organization ID in your Java SDK project's pom.xml.
