AMS Asset Data Source Records

AMS Asset Data Source records store connection information about AMS Data Sources that GE Digital APM uses to pull data into GE Digital APM. This topic provides a list and description of the fields that exist for the AMS Asset Data Source family and appear in the sections on the AMS Data Source Configuration: New Data Source datasheet.

This family is enabled for site filtering, which means that records in this family can be assigned to a specific site, and will then only be accessible to users who are assigned to the same site and have the appropriate license and family privileges. See the Site Filtering section of the documentation for more information on using this feature.

Web Service Details

The Web Service Details section of the AMS Data Source Configuration: New Data Source data sheet stores connection information about the web services that the GE Digital APM uses to connect to the AMS Analytics data source.

This section provides an alphabetical list and description of the fields that exist in the Web Service Details section and appear on the AMS Data Source Configuration: New Data Source datasheet. The information in the table reflects the baseline state and behavior of these fields.

Field	Data Type	Description	Behavior and Usage
CMMS Data Source	Boolean	This field is no longer used.	N/A
Enabled	Boolean	Enable connection to the web service.	The value in this field determines whether or not GE Digital will attempt to retrieve data from this AMS Analytics data source when the scheduled item is executed. When the AMS Asset Data Source record is created, the Enabled check box is selected by default, indicating that the connection is enabled. You can clear the Enabled check box to disable the data source connection.
Name	Character	Name of the AMS Analytics data source to identify the record.	This field is required and must be unique. If you try to save the record with the same value in the Name field as an existing AMS Asset Data Source record, a message appears, indicating that the name is not valid.
Network Domain	Character	The name of the network domain associated with the AMS Analytics data source used to access the web service.	This field is required only if you must first log in to a network to access the web service for the AMS Analytics data source.

Request Queue	Character	The name of request queue on the GE Digital APM Server.	None
Response Queue-	Character	The name of the response queue on the GE Digital APM server.	None
URL	Character	The URL for accessing the web service associated with the AMS Analytics data source.	This field is required. After you type a URL in this field and navigate to a different field, parameters on the Detailed Report Details tab are populated automatically based upon the AMS Analytics data source that you specify in the URL. Not all the fields on this tab are populated for all AMS Analytics data sources. For more information, see the description of the Detailed Report Details tab.
User ID	Character	The User ID used to access the AMS Analytics data source. Log in to the data source at the location specified in the URL text box.	This field is required.
