Download the Connection Profile

Each Data Stream created in Data Stream Designer must belong to a Collection. You can download the information in a Collection as a file, known as a Connection Profile. This profile includes the device name, collection ID, server URL, secret, and key.

To simplify installing a Stream Host (also called a device), download the Connection Profile to avoid manually copying Collection details from Data Stream Designer to the installer.

To obtain a Connection Profile, follow the steps below.

1. Log into Data Stream Designer and open the Collections page from the left-hand menu.

2. Select the Collection you wish to use. If there isn’t a Collection available, you can create one by clicking the New button, choosing a name for the collection, and clicking Ok.

3. Click on Connection Profile.

4. Choose a name for the device.

5. Enter the File Key.

6. Click Ok. The Connection Profile will automatically begin to download.
