Raj VakatiRaj Vakati
An external data source specifies how to access an external system. Salesforce Connect uses external data sources to access data that's stored outside your Salesforce organization. Files Connect uses external data sources to access third-party content systems. External data sources have associated external objects, which your users and the Lightning platform use to interact with the external data and content.


These are the types of data source salesforce supports 
 
  1. Files Connect: Google Drive
  2. Files Connect: SharePoint 2010 or 2013
  3. Files Connect: SharePoint Online or OneDrive for Business
  4. Files Connect: Box
  5. Simple URL: Data from Another Web Domain
  6. Salesforce Connect: OData 2.0
  7. Salesforce Connect: OData 4.0
  8. Salesforce Connect: Cross-Org
  9. Salesforce Connect: Custom
  10. Federated Search
