Configuring the Add/Update Records connector

This topic describes how to configure the Add/Update Records connector for data ingest.

1. In the Graph window, double-click the Add/Update Records component. The Integrator Edit Component dialog is displayed.
2. In the Edit Component dialog, enter these mandatory settings in the Basic section:
   • Endeca Server Host: Enter the host name of the machine on which the Endeca Server is running.
   • Endeca Server Port: Enter the port on which the Endeca Server is listening.
   • Data Store Name: Enter the name of the Endeca data store into which the records will be added.
   • Spec Attribute: Enter the name of the property that is the primary key (record spec) for the records.
3. Still in the Writer Edit Component dialog, you can make these optional settings in the Advanced section:
   • SSL Enabled: Toggle this field to true if the Endeca Server is SSL-enabled.
   • Batch Size (Bytes): To change the default batch size (which is in bytes), enter a positive integer. Specifying 0 or a negative number will disable batching.
   • Multi-assign delimiter: Specify the character that separates multi-assign values in an input property. Keep in mind that this delimiter is different from the delimiter that separates properties.
   • Maximum number of failed batches: Enter a positive integer that sets the maximum number of batches that can fail before the ingest operation is ended. Entering 0 allows no failed batches.
4. When you have input all your changes, click OK.
5. Save the graph.
