Edge Delta Agent Configuration v2

The Edge Delta v2 agent is configured using a yaml configuration file.

Edge Delta agent that v0.1.70 or older are configured only using a v2 yaml configuration file. See here for more information. To configure a v0.1.71 or later agent, you can use Visual Pipelines or the v3 YAML configuration.

Configuration v2 consists of the following sections:

The three main components of the agent configuration are inputs, workflows, and outputs. Inputs are your data sources, while outputs are your data destinations. Workflows define the logic that is applied to your data by the Edge Delta agent. They specify the combination of filters, processors, thresholds and workflow conditions to apply to an input, as well as which output to send the resulting data to. A detailed configuration will consist of many workflows that cater for your data use cases. Workflows use labels to refer to the other components in the configuration.
