The PowerConnect Cloud agent can be configured to use checkpointing. Checkpointing is a technique for storing and retrieving the point at which an input should resume the next time it’s executed. The agent supports both ID and Timestamp based checkpoint values.
Note - currently in version 1.0.8 only the CPI message input and the CPQ event log input support checkpointing but others will be supported in the next version 1.0.9.
Configuring a Checkpoint for an Input
Whilst creating an Input or editing an existing Input click on the Checkpoint tab
Choose the Checkpoint Type
Timestamp - this uses a timestamp to store the last timestamp/date the Input read for the events it collected in its last run (defaults to current time on the first run)
ID - this uses a numerical ID field to store the last ID the Input read for the events it collected
Choose the Checkpoint Field
This is a list of known fields from Input Field Mapping that matches the Checkpoint Type e.g for Timestamp only the fields mapped to Date/Timestamp will be shown
Click Save
Under the Checkpoints Tab you can see the newly configured Checkpoint, its current value and the last time it was updated
