Systems

Why does ZigiOps need a System?

A System is a configuration object containing the connection details about a product you want to integrate. The Systems page is a repository of all system instances in your current ZigiOps instance. Each system requires a set of configuration details, such as URL, port, username, and password. The configuration of the different systems varies.

Adding a System

1. Navigate to Systems, which will display the list of available systems.

2. Click the Add System → System Types button and select the desired system.

3. Input the required connection and authentication details and click the Save button.

   

Removing a System

1. Navigate to Systems, which will display the list of available systems.

2. Click the Options → Delete of a System to remove it from your ZigiOps instance.

   

Exporting a System

1. Navigate to Systems, which will display the list of available systems.

2. Click the Options → Export of a System to export its configuration as a configuration file. The system’s configuration file can serve as a backup or be imported into another ZigiOps instance.

   

Importing a System

1. Navigate to Systems, which will display the list of available systems.

2. Click the Add System → Import button and select the desired system configuration file to import it to your ZigiOps instance.

   

Reloading a System Schema

Forces ZigiOps to discard the currently loaded schema and retrieve it again to detect new changes on the corresponding system instance, such as newly added custom fields.

Note that reloading the schema discards the locally stored schema files and requires the integration user to have sufficient permissions.

1. Navigate to Systems, which will display the list of available systems.

2. Click the Options → Reload Schema of a System to force reload (re-retrieve) its schema.

   

Downloading a System Schema

Downloads the system schema as a file for backup or troubleshooting purposes.

A copy of the schema is also available under the <ZigiOps>/conf/settings/schemes folder of each ZigiOps installation, introduced with the ZigiOps 2023.04.1.366 release.

1. Access the ZigiOps web console.

2. Navigate to Systems, which will display the list of available systems.

3. Click the Options → Reload Schema button to download the schema as a file.

   

Test Connection
