Data Source Overview
The data source overview page provides a centralized view for each of your connected data sources within your workspace. Once a source is added, it appears in the Data Sources menu and can be accessed here for detailed inspection and management.
This page serves as the control panel for monitoring the status of your plugin connections and objects, and as a location to quickly accessing the available data streams and pre-built dashboards. It displays:
- The name of the data source.
- The status of the data source connection.
- When the last object finished indexing:
Objects are automatically indexed every 12 hours.
Click Refresh index
to re-index its objects and refresh its data.
- An overview of the objects for the data source.
- A list of the pre-built dashboards installed with the data source.
Managing a data source
Admin users can click Manage to open the Edit data source window for the plugin, where they can manage the data source's configuration settings.
Editing a data source's configuration settings will update the settings for every workspace that uses it in SquaredUp.
For detailed information on each plugin's configuration options, refer to the corresponding Data source article.
Connection status
The indexing status of the data source:
- Connected (green): Everything is working correctly.
- Connected (orange): The data source connected however there were issues detected. Click More Info to find out more about the issue with the data source.
- Error (red): The data source failed to connect. Click More Info to find out more about the issue with the data source.
Dashboards
A hyperlinked list of pre-built dashboards and perspectives installed with the plugin is displayed at the top-left of the page. You can click these links to quickly navigate to that dashboard/perspective.
Each dashboard/perspective can also be accessed via the left-hand navigation menu, as clicking a data source name toggles the same list:
Removing a data source
Admin users can click the Remove button at the top of the page to remove the data source from the workspace. However any dashboard tiles configured to use that data source will no longer work.
