Catalog

About the catalog

Here you can find detailed information of each collector and access to create instances of them.
Collectors allow you to integrate different platforms and systems with the Devo application.
In order to create a collector instance and integrate your data, you must have your own keychains, which can be created from the keychain tab.

In the Catalog view, you can visualize a list of the most used collectors and create instances of them.

Create an instance

You can create a new collector instance directly from this view using the Create instance button and complete the required information and parameters:

  • Give it a Name.

  • Indicate the Version.

  • Add and validate the raw JSON configuration in the Collector parameters field.

Add Environment Variables

Environment Variables allow us to assign values to collectors without needing to specify them in the parameters. To add them to your instance, click the Add environment variable button.

There are two Types of environment variables:

  • Manual: Enter a key-value pair in the free text field.

  • Keychain: Assign a keychain in your domain, and then select a keychain-key pair. To create a keychain in the domain, go to the Keychains tab of the application.

Only the collectors using the latest versions of the internal libraries support to use of “placeholders” in the Collector Parameters section.

A “placeholder” means to set “environment variable name“ between “double curly brackets” ({{ and }}), for instance, the following example would require an environment variable called token_env:

{ ”api_token”: “{{token_env}}“ }

Select whether you wish to use the default Sender configuration. If not, enter the Keychain.

Select Create instance to confirm the creation.
