Updating the default data source to point to your Endeca Server

When you first install Studio, all components that require a backing data source are bound to a data source called default.

If no other data sources are present, then Studio creates a placeholder default data source.

Before you can start working with components in Studio, you must either:
  • Use the Data Sources page to update this data source to point to the correct server, port, and data store name.
  • Add a new data source to Studio, then use the Framework Settings page to configure that data source to be the default.

The Data Sources and Framework Settings pages are both available from the Control Panel.

To update the default data source:

  1. In the Studio Control Panel menu, in the Information Discovery section, click Data Sources.
  2. On the Data Sources page, click the Edit button for the default data source.
  3. In the data source definition, edit the server, port, and data store name to reflect your Endeca Server.

    For example: 

    {
"server":"localhost",
"port":"5555",
"datastoreName":"acmeDB"
}
  4. Click Save.

For details on creating and managing data sources, see the Oracle Endeca Information Discovery Studio User's Guide.
