Ingress data

Ingress data into your CONNECT data services tenant using any of the following options. For a full list of data ingress sources for CONNECT data services, see Data ingress sources.

Option A: Collect data from PI Server

Transfer on-premises PI Data Archive and Asset Framework (AF) data into CONNECT data services via a PI to CONNECT Agent.

1. Install the PI to CONNECT Agent.

2. Run the PI to Data Hub Agent Configuration Utility.

3. Create a data transfer.

Option B: Collect data from OMF applications

Collect data from edge devices and other sources using the following OMF applications:

• AVEVA Adapters

• Edge Data Store

• AVEVA Historian (2023 and later releases)

• PI Interfaces (health and diagnostics data only)

• Custom OMF applications provided by others

Prerequisite: You must have the OMF application installed and configured.

4. Review OMF connections best practices.

5. Add a client-credentials client. The OMF application uses this client to authenticate with CONNECT data services.

6. Configure an OMF connection. Connect your OMF application to CONNECT data services.

Option C: Collect data from custom applications

APIs provide programmatic access to bring sequential data into CONNECT data services. You can do this through the development of custom applications provided by others.
