AVEVA Events to CONNECT enables you to configure data source and data selection. The agent also provides the ability to configure queries to run on the data source.
The examples in the configuration topics use curl, a commonly available tool on Windows. The agent can be configured with any programming language or tool that supports making REST calls.
To validate configurations, you can perform data retrieval (GET commands) using curl or with any programming language or tool that supports making REST calls, if available on your device.
For more information on configuration tools, see Configuration tools.
