Problem with Trailhead - Salesforce Connect Error -The 'Mobile Devices' External Data Source was not created correctly
Hello,
The challenge has asked for the following:
Create an OData 2.0 external data source with 'Mobile Devices' as the label, 'Mobile_Devices' as the name, and this URL: https://phone-odata-demo.herokuapp.com/devices.svc/
Use the 'AtomPub' format and the 'Anonymous' Identity Type for the 'Mobile Devices' External Data Source.
The 'Mobile Devices' data source must validate and sync the 'phone_plans' table to result in an external object with the API name 'Phone_Plan__x'.
The 'Mobile Devices' data source must validate and sync the 'phones' table to result in an external object with the API name 'Phone__x'.
Note that you will need to adjust the Object Names for the two external objects from the default setting after the initial sync.
I have reread the instructions and for some reason I'm still getting the error below. I noticed that others who have done this challenge have the value "Lightning Connect: OData 2.0" in the Type field while I don't have that as an option and can only select "Salesforce Connect: OData 2.0". Any ideas?

Check that you have new DEV org and define MyDomain as it is required for Lightning

Hi Sandhya,
Thanks for providing the link. I checked and my org is a developer edition org. Do you know if it matter that I'm using salesforce connect vs. lightning connect for this trailhead?
Best,
Kim
