Configuring Data Push Settings

You can push the sensor or asset strip data to a remote server for data synchronization. The data is sent in JSON format using HTTP POST requests. You need to set up the destination and authentication for data push on the HPDU.

After configuring the destination and authentication settings, do either, or both of the following:

• To perform the data push after the occurrence of a certain event, create the data push action and assign it to an event rule.

• To push the data at a regular interval, schedule the data push action.

1. Select Device Settings → Data Push.
2. To specify a destination, click + New Destination.
3. Set up the URL field.
   1. Click the Up or Down arrow and select http or https.
   2. Type the URL or host name.
   3. If you selected https, click the CA certificate to install it.
4. If the destination server requires authentication, select Use Authentication, and enter the User name and password.
5. In the Entry Type field, determine the data that will be transmitted.
