How to set "connector.client.config.override.policy" to kafka connect configuration?

Hello.

I would like to use the kafka connect to connect the kafka brokers provided by cdp and on-premise kafka brokers.

To do that, I need to set the configuration value "connector.client.config.override.policy".

But I could not find the menu to set custom configuration of kafka connect.

Could you let me know how to set the custom configuration of kafka connect especially "connector.client.config.override.policy".?

Try CM > Kafka > Configuration > (use filter) Kafka Connect Advanced Configuration Snippet (Safety Valve) for connect-distributed.properties

Then add:

connector.client.config.override.policy=All

Check the kafka connect log files for this line and see if the property changed properly:

"org.apache.kafka.connect.runtime.distributed.DistributedConfig: DistributedConfig values"

Let me know if that helped.
