Configure RPI to RPDM connectivity

For RPI to be able to communicate with the RPDM server, there are several System Configuration (Configuration > System Configuration) values that must be populated within the RPI Client. Some of the configuration settings listed below are not required for using data process projects (DPPs) but are options for other RPI/RPDM integration functionality.

RPI configuration settings and descriptions

This section provides information about the settings for configuring connectivity between RPI and RPDM.

The following table describes each of the configuration settings:

Setting	Description
Data Management Credentials	An RPDM account is needed for RPI to log in to the RPDM server. This account will require the level of privileges needed to carry out the processing to be performed by the RPI data process.
Data Management Data Connection	You can only specify a single data connection in RPI, and it is expected to be the data connection that points to the primary data warehouse for RPI.
Data Management Execution Server	This is the name of the RPDM execution server that the RPI jobs will be run on.
Data Management Integration Type	This option should be set to 1, as only the RPDM Operational API (OAPI) should be used to trigger projects on RPDM version 8 or above. If you are not on a supported version of RPDM, any issues you encounter may not be covered by support.
Data Management OAPI Web Service Address	This is the web service address of the RPDM OAPI. The default port in this case is `8080` but should reflect whatever port you have deployed your OAPI on.
Data Management Override Network Root Directory	This setting is not required for DPPs.
Data Management Server Name	In this example, `localhost` is referenced because RPDM and RPI are installed on the same machine. Either a fully qualified domain name (FQDN) or IP can be used. RPI must be able to access the RPDM server if they are not on the same server. This may require firewall updates or network configuration depending on deployment.
Data Management Port	Default RPDM port should be included in the config, but if a custom port is used, populate with the appropriate value. The default port is `20420`.
Data Management Upload Directory	This setting is not required for DPPs.
Data Management Version Major	This setting should be set to the major version number of RPDM. In this case we are running on major version `9`.
Default Schema	This is the default schema of the primary data warehouse, but it is listed here as it is passed as a variable to the RPDM project as a reference if RPDM has access to multiple schemas via the data connection.
