2 | In this microlearning, we will focus on learning how to configure a system. | ||
3 | Configuring a system is the first step in designing an integration within eMagiz | ||
4 | |||
5 | Should you have any questions, please contact [[academy@emagiz.com>>mailto:academy@emagiz.com]]. | ||
6 | |||
7 | == 1. Prerequisites == | ||
8 | |||
9 | * Basic knowledge of the eMagiz platform | ||
10 | |||
11 | == 2. Key concepts == | ||
12 | |||
13 | This microlearning centers around configuring a system. | ||
14 | With configuration we mean: Adding, Editing, and/or Deleting a system | ||
15 | With system we mean: An application that will exchange data between itself and others (via eMagiz) | ||
16 | |||
17 | To configure a system you need the following: | ||
18 | |||
19 | * The name of the system | ||
20 | * Basic information about the system | ||
21 | |||
22 | == 3. Configure a system == | ||
23 | |||
24 | As specified before with configure we mean adding, editing, and/or deleting a system. Below we will detail per action what you should do. | ||
25 | |||
26 | === 3.1 Adding a system === | ||
27 | |||
28 | To add a system simply click on the system icon (regular or multi-tenant) located on the top left corner of your screen. | ||

32 | [[image:Main.Images.Microlearning.WebHome@crashcourse-platform-capture-configure-a-system--drag-system-on-canvas.png]] | ||
33 | |||
34 | After you have released the system in the correct place you will immediately be presented with the following pop-up. In this pop-up fill in the following elements: | ||
35 | |||
36 | * Name | ||
37 | * Description | ||
38 | * Default Integration Pattern | ||
39 | * Hosting | ||
40 | |||
41 | When you fill in these elements you have registered the relevant meta-information for yourself and others to relate to the system in question | ||
42 | |||

44 | |||
45 | If you are satisfied with your work you can update the status and press Save. | ||
46 | |||
47 | === 3.2 Editing a system === | ||
48 | |||
49 | To edit a system you simply double click on the system (or edit it via the context menu). After you have done so you can edit the system via the same pop-up as when you create a new system. | ||
50 | |||
51 | For example, you could change the Status to Done or add a Remark. Editing a system can be done without impact at any given moment as you only edit descriptive fields. | ||
52 | |||

54 | |||
55 | === 3.3 Deleting a system === | ||
56 | |||
57 | Adding a system is the starting point of your integration. Both editing and deleting a system can happen at any given moment. | ||
58 | Although editing a system has no impact regardless of the state of the system in subsequent phases of the ILM the same does not apply for deleting a system. | ||
59 | |||
60 | When a system has been transferred to Create you cannot delete the system anymore in Capture without removing it first from Create. | ||
61 | This is done to prevent situations that could be disastrous (i.e removing something that is still running on Production). | ||
62 | |||
63 | The specifics of those situations will be discussed in a separate microlearning. For now, we will keep it simple and focus on deleting a system while it is still in Capture and Design. | ||
64 | |||
65 | To delete a system in such a scenario you can simply open the context menu and press Delete system and press OK on the confirmation pop-up. | ||

68 | |||
69 | == 4. Key takeaways == | ||
70 | |||
71 | * Adding a system is the starting point of building an integration via eMagiz | ||
72 | * Editing system information can be done at any given time without impact on other ILM phases | ||
73 | * Deleting a system can only be done (without special steps in preparation) when the system has **not** yet been transferred to Create or has been untransferred from Create. | ||
