SquaredUp allows you to configure and extend how your data is displayed, connected, and enhanced in the Map. It provides advanced options for managing object visibility, relationships, and data ingestion beyond what’s automatically handled by your data sources.

Tags

Tags allow you to make properties visible in the Map. By default, only objects are shown in the Map, while their individual properties remain hidden. Tags let you surface these properties, giving you more flexibility in how you view and organize your data.

For example, you might tag a property such as Environment or Owner to make it visible alongside objects in the Map. This makes it easier to identify and filter related items based on shared attributes.

Custom Correlations

Custom Correlations let you define new relationships or merge existing ones between objects in the Map.

There are two main ways to use custom correlations:

• Create new relationships between objects:
  Normally, relationships between objects are defined automatically by their data sources. However, with custom correlations, you can manually create additional links.
  This is especially useful when you want to connect data from different sources. For example, linking a GitHub repository to a related Azure DevOps project.
• Merge objects from different data sources:
  Sometimes the same real-world entity appears in multiple systems. With custom correlations, you can merge these into a single unified object, providing a clearer and more connected view of your environment.

Custom Data Streams

A Custom Data Stream is a data stream that you, as an advanced user, can define and write yourself.
While most data streams come from built-in or integrated data sources, custom data streams let you bring in your own data in a flexible and programmable way.

This feature is ideal for users who want to integrate proprietary systems, experimental data sources, or specialized telemetry that isn’t covered by standard integrations.
