    Universal Data Connections

    I'm looking for some guidance because what I'm experiencing can't possibly correct.

    1. I have created data connections, converted them to site collection relative and then uploaded those to Central Admininstration - which seems like an extra step but I digress
    2. Whenever I try to create a new form and add one of the dataconnections from Central Admin it says it can't find any data connections.

    Do I need to add one from the site collection DCL I needed to complete step one and then convert it to a centrally managed one where it will pick it up when the form is deployed??  

     I guess my question is am I stuck having 2 dataconnection libraries holding the same data connections?

    Hi JasonMacKenzie,

    Good question! I don't really know, but I do know the UDCs must exist in a DCL. We use Data Connection Libraries on SharePoint sites (from DVLs) and have never experienced your problem. You're definitely doing the right thing though in using UDCs - they're a great best practice.
