Should we show this message when check it from true to false?

Ok, I get it now. Basically, you control both connector options with this boolean

I understand that there are no other implementations besides Legacy REST API and Graph API.

But why don't we just make it an enum value? Without using interfaces. Just to be more readable. In this case, we can, for example, make Graph API the default value, and it will look much better than boolean = true by default.

Also, maybe it will be another implementation in future, low chance, but worth to mention
