      access_key: my_access_key_123
      secret_key: my_secret_key_123

Parameters

name

Required

Enter a descriptive name for the output or integration.

For outputs, this name will be used to map this destination to a workflow.

name: my-ibm-object-storage

integration_name

Optional

This parameter refers to the organization-level integration created in the Integrations page.

If you need to add multiple instances of the same integration into the config, then you can add a custom name to each instance via the name parameter. In this situation, the name should be used to refer to the specific instance of the destination in the workflows.

integration_name: orgs-ibmos

type: ibmos

Required

Enter ibmos.

type: ibmos

endpoint

Required

Enter the IBM Object Storage endpoint.

endpoint: s3-api.us-geo.objectstorage.softlayer.net

bucket

Required

Enter the desired IBM Object Storage bucket to send the archived logs.

bucket: ed-test-bucket-ibm

access_key

Required

Enter the access key that has permission to upload files to the specified bucket.

access_key: my_access_key_123

Optional

Enter an encoding type for archiving purposes.

You can enter json or parquet.

Enter a length of time to retry failed streaming data.

After this length of time is reached, the failed streaming data will no longer be tried.

buffer_ttl: 2h

buffer_path

Optional

The failed streaming data will be retried until the data reaches its destinations or until the Buffer TTL value is reached.

If you enter a path that does not exist, then the agent will create directories, as needed.

buffer_path: /var/log/edgedelta/pushbuffer/

buffer_max_bytesize

Optional

Enter the maximum size of failed streaming data that you want to retry.

If the failed streaming data is larger than this size, then the failed streaming data will not be retried.
