For more information about what this plugin does and the data streams it retrieves, see:
Monitor the artifacts and repositories from your Artifactory environment. The data source is available as a Cloud data source and also as an on-prem data source.
An on-prem data source connects a service running on your internal network to SquaredUp. It requires an agent installed on a machine that has access to your internal network.
To add a data source click on the + next to Data Sources on the left-hand menu in SquaredUp. Search for the data source and click on it to open the Configure data source page.
You can also add a data source by clicking Add data source on the Settings > Data Sources page, but pre-built dashboards are not added when using this method.
Before you start
You will only need to configure and deploy an agent if you adding the Artifactory on-prem data source. If you want to add the Artifactory Cloud data source, you only need to configure the data source.
Configuring and deploying an agent
If you have already created an agent in SquaredUp that you can use for this data source, you can skip this step and choose the agent group you want to use while Configuring the data source.
See one of the following, depending on your platform type:
Configuring the data source
Display Name:
Enter a name for your data source. This helps you to identify this data source in the list of your data sources.- Artifactory Url:
Enter the URL of your Artifactory instance. - Authentication:
Select one of the following authentication types:- Token: You must enter the API authentication token in the API Token field.
- Username and Password: You must enter a Username and Password in the corresponding fields.
Ignore Certificate errors:
If you activate this checkbox the data source will ignore certificate errors when accessing the server. This is useful if you have self-signed certificates.
Restrict access to this data source:
You can enable this option if you only want certain users or groups to have access to the data source, or the permission to link it to new workspaces. See data source access control for more information.Install Dashboards:
Select whether you would like to install pre-built dashboards and perspectives with the data source. By default, this is set to on.Click Test and add to validate the data source configuration. SquaredUp will now attempt to connect to SquaredUp using the provided authentication method. If this process fails, see Testing and troubleshooting for assistance with the corresponding errors.

Data streams
Data streams standardize data from all the different shapes and formats your tools use into a straightforward tabular format.
While creating a tile you can tweak data streams by grouping or aggregating specific columns.
Depending on the kind of data, SquaredUp will automatically suggest how to visualize the result, for example as a table or line graph.
Data streams can be either global or scoped:
- Global data streams are unscoped and return information of a general nature (e.g. "Get the current number of unused hosts").
- A scoped data stream gets information relevant to the specific set objects supplied in the tile scope (e.g. "Get the current session count for these hosts").
See Data Streams for more information.
The following data streams are installed with this plugin.
Configurable data streams
The following data streams have configurable Parameters.
