CONNECT data services egress quick start

Data egress provides a mechanism to transfer data to CONNECT data services using Open Message Format (OMF) messages. To get started sending data stored in Edge Data Store (EDS) to CONNECT data services, prepare the destination and configure the EgressEndpoints facet to use that destination.

CONNECT data services destinations

To prepare CONNECT data services to receive OMF messages from EDS, create an OMF connection in CONNECT data services. Creating an OMF connection results in an available OMF endpoint that EDS can use for the egress mechanism.

To create an OMF connection to CONNECT data services:

1. In CONNECT data services, create a client. For details, see Clients in the CONNECT data services documentation.

   The Client Id and Client Secret are used for the corresponding properties in the EgressEndpoints configuration.

2. In CONNECT data services, create an OMF connection. For details, see Configure an OMF connection in the CONNECT data services documentation.

   The OMF Endpoint URL for the connection is used as the EgressEndpoints configuration Endpoint parameter.

Create an egress configuration

To set up EDS periodic egress for CONNECT data services, see Configure periodic data egress.

To set up EDS manual egress to CONNECT data services, see Configure manual data egress.
