Reference: Squirro can also be extended with custom data connectors. See [How To Write a Custom Data Loader Plugin](../../how-to/custom-loader.md#data-loader-custom-loader) for more information. > **Note** > > Some out-of-the-box connectors require premium subscription service activation, such as the Dow Jones Newswires or Refinitiv connectors.
