Connections

This section shows all connections configured for the selected IM instance.

Instance Repository 

This tab shows a list of already deployed connections. When you want to apply changes to an already deployed connection, you need to first create a local copy, edit it and then deploy it.

For easier troubleshooting, you can also see here invalid connections and their definitions (i.e. connections which had issues during deployment).

Available options:

• Create Local Copy – Allows you to edit already deployed connection; see below.

• Show definition. 

• Delete a connection.

• Debug – A column in the Connections table that allows you to enable/disable debugging for deployed Pricefx connections.

Workspace

This tab shows new or locally edited connections that have not been deployed yet.

Available options: 

• Add/edit a connection – There are the following fields to fill in:

  • Name – Connection name of your choice.

  • Connection type – Select from:

    • Pricefx Client – Allows you to connect to a partition.

    • SFTP – Connection of this type is automatically created for any new IM instance (since 1.50).
