Managing integrations
Edit and update existing configurations.
About this task
After an integration is successfully configured, it periodically communicates with the external tool to synchronize the data flow.
An integration that is working properly has a status of Online. An
integration that is not working has a status of Failed. Disrupted
communications or inaccurate integration configurations can cause the integration to fail. The
Last Sync field displays the time of the last successful communication. The
default communication interval when scheduled event integrations run can be configured by the
PLUGIN_INTEGRATION_RUN_INTERVAL
environment variable on the reporting-consumer
service to a valid integer for the minutes between each run.
To manage an integration, perform one or more of the following steps:
