Reporting Connector
Requirements
To set up the Reporting Connector you will need either an IIS installation with a current version of the ASP.NET Core Runtime package installed or an Azure App Service ready for deployment. In both cases the service will need access to Celonis Process Management, SSRS and the ODS database. It must also be reachable by the server side component of Celonis Process Management.
Installation
Reporting Connector on IIS
Create a directory to host the files of the connector service, e.g. C:
Copy all files and folders of the service into this directory.
In IIS Manager:
Create a new Application pool (No Managed Code/Integrated) and assign a user account with appropriate rights (Full Control) to the directory created in step 1.
Create a new Application (Web Site) using the created pool and selecting the created directory.
Note the resulting URL (composed of website binding URL and the selected alias/path of the new application).
Configure the Connector by editing its appsettings.config files (can be found among the files copied in step 2).
Test connection to service by navigating to the noted URL.
Reporting Connector as Azure App Service
Deploy the service package.
Note the URL of the deployed service.
Configure the Connector by editing its app service settings.
Test connection to service by navigating to the noted URL.
Configuration
The Connector service has several values that need to be configured for it to function properly. These values can be set in its appsettings.config file (IIS) or the app service settings of Azure.
