After you create a connection with an external source system, create a data extract to extract data from it.

You are limited to running a maximum of 100 data extracts and a maximum of 100 model links in any 24-hour period per package. You can add additional packages to your entitlement to increase the total number of data extracts and models links that you can run within a 24-hour period.

After the data is extracted, create a transformation view, which transforms that data into the structure required for your Anaplan model.

A connection can have multiple data extracts.
