Integrating the Discovery Module
The Logi Discovery Module (DM) is a separate, recommended add-on module that enables special elements in Logi Info and provides access to the Thinkspace, a highly-interactive analysis tool instead of, or in addition to, the Analysis Grid.
Installation information for the DM is available in Install the Discovery Module - Windows and Install the Discovery Module - Linux and is not repeated here. The remainder of this topic describes the configuration steps needed to enable the DM in InfoGo.
If the DM has been installed, a special definition, goDiscovery, will be available in the InfoGo report definitions.
Depending on how the goAnalysisType constant is configured (see below) different analysis tool options will be shown in the menu for use when creating a new analysis. Both options, as shown above, can be displayed if the constant is set to UserSelectable.
Connecting to Data
A successful configuration of the Discovery Module requires two additional datasource connections, as described in the Connecting to Data section of Connecting to the Logi Application Service. Be sure to add and configure these elements, and to create metadata for the Connection element.
In the goDiscovery definition, you must set the Thinkspace element's Logi Application Service ID attribute to match the ID of the Connection.Logi Application Service element you added in the _Settings definition.
Special DM Constants
In order to enable the DM, add the following constants and values to the _Settings definition:
Constant | Description |
---|---|
goAnalysisType | Specifies the analysis tool options that will appear on the menu. Possible values and effects include: AnalysisGrid (or if left blank) - The Analysis Grid will be used, and the goAnalysisGrid definition will be shown when this option is selected. |
goMetadataIDsAnalysisGrid | Specifies a comma-separated list of one or more IDs of Metadata elements, defined for connections in the _Settings definition, to be used with the Analysis Grid. If left blank, all Metadata element IDs from _Settings will be used. This constant is used in the Active Query Builder in the goAnalysisGrid definition. |
goMetadataIDsDiscovery | Specifies a comma-separated list of one or more IDs of Metadata elements, defined for connections in the _Settings definition, to be used with the DM. If left blank, all Metadata element IDs from _Settings will be used. This constant is used in the Active Query Builder in the goDiscovery definition |
