Data Gateways settings

Configure the Data Gateways engine by determining what data will be processed and where relevant, the frequency at which data is sent.

1. Select the System tab.

2. Select Data Gateways > Settings.

   

3. Select the required options to determine where session log data will be stored – at least one option must be selected:
   • Write session logs to database – Session logs will be sent to the session log table in the Blue Prism database. If not selected, the functionality to view new session logs in the Blue Prism client will be unavailable.
   • Send session logs to data gateways – Session logs will be sent to a temporary storage table on the Blue Prism database where they are accessed by the Data Gateways engine for use in the configured outputs.
   • If the specified HTTP, Splunk, or Database Data Gateway endpoint is not reachable when the data is being processed, the data is stored temporarily until the endpoint becomes available. See Data Storage when endpoint unavailable for details.
4. Select Send published dashboards to data gateways to send data from published dashboards to a database table in the Data Gateways system and set the frequency that data is sent for each dashboard.

5. Select Send work queue analysis snapshot data to data gateways to send work queue analysis data to the database.

6. Set the Status monitoring frequency to a value between 5 and 3600 seconds. This determines how often the Data Gateways screen in Control Room screen is refreshed.

   For more information about Blue Prism dashboards, see the Dashboards Overview topic in the in-product help.

7. Update the default port used for the Data Gateways database connection settings, if required. By default, the Data Gateways process uses port 1433.
8. Click Apply to save the settings.
