   Do NOT forget to add the cli_dispatch.phpsh to your server crontabs, or other task schedulers.
3. Last step us to enable scheduler jobs

Check CLI user is created

As the connector use, CLI commands to perform background operations, the CLI user needs to be created.

1. Go to the administration area, and select Backend Users in the sidebar.
2. Check if the user _cli_user does not exist yet.
   In TYPO 3 version 8, this user is named _cli_ and exists by default.
3. If it doesn't exist, click to the "Create a new record" button
   
   
   
   Then, use _cli_user (or _cli_ for v8) as username and leave the password unchanged (don't worry, users can't log in with this username).
   
   

Connector installation

The connector installation is relatively easy to do, as the usual TYPO3 extension installation.

1. Go to the administration area, and select Extensions in the sidebar.
2. Click to the "Upload extension" square button on the top. Then, select the extension file and upload it.
   
   
   
   Congratulations, the installation of the Beebox Connector is now completed!
