Add a New Indicator from Existing One

Sometimes we need to create multiple indicators with the same configurations with just different names. To do this, we can create a new indicator from the existing one.
To do that, go to Indicator Management, click the cog icon and click Create from This, and it will be redirected to the form with pre-configuration from the last selected indicator.

Edit Multiple Indicator

Sometimes we need to update multiple indicators because they have the same configurations. To do it, go to Indicator Management, and click the Multi-Edit. There will be a checkbox where we can check the indicators that we needed. After we check the indicators, click Multi-Edit Form, and it will be redirected to the form and fill some fields if they have the same configurations. To change a configuration, we need to check the checkbox before the input label, and the input will be turned on, and we can change the configuration value.

Value Manager Form

There are two ways to manually add data to indicators. The first is by using the 'Value Manager Form'. To access this form, go to Indicator Management and scroll to the indicator that you would like to add data. On the right-hand side of the indicator's name, there will be a small Settings symbol. Click on Settings for the desired indicator and then click on Value Manager Form. You will be redirected to a form that gives you all the geographic locations within the instance and spaces to add values. You can also add a file to fill in the data by clicking Use File to Refill Form

Value Manager Map

The second way to add data to an indicator is through the 'Value Manager Map' option. Go to Indicator Management and scroll to the indicator that you would like to add data. On the right-hand side of the indicator's name, there will be a small Settings symbol. Click on Settings for the desired indicator and then click on Value Manager Map. This will take you back to the map canvas. Now you will be able to click on any geographic location within the instance and a popup window will appear which will allow you to fill in value data for that location.

Harvesters

The process of creating a harvester is for the total automation fetching of data. Go to Indicator Management and if you haven't already created the indicator you want to work with, start by doing that. Once the necessary indicator exists, click on the little Settings icon on the right-hand side of the indicator name. Select the Create Harvester option. Pick the type of harvester you would like to create from the drop-down 'Harvester' (you will be presented with three options: 'API With Geography Using Today's Date'; 'API With Geography And Date'; and 'Harvested Using Exposed API By External Client'). The first two options are for the harvester and the third one is for the ingestor. For the API With Geography Using Today's Date and API With Geography And Date options, fill in the Attributes portion of the form and then a popup window with a list of keys will appear; drag the green labels to their corresponding criteria. Double-check that in 'Geometry Mapping', 'From' matches 'To'. Select Harvest Now. You can scroll down to the log to see if your harvest is running in the background. Go to Indicator Management and click on the little settings icon that you just created a harvester for and select Value Manager Map to view your progress.

Create Harvester

To create a 'Meta Harvester', go to Indicator Management and in the top right-hand corner of the page, there will be a Meta Harvester option that you will need to select. Fill in 'Sheet name', 'Column name: administration code', and add the appropriate file. Submit your work. Click Report File to view your work.

Ingestors

The function of an ingestor is to manually upload data which is then automatically ingested or pushed from a remote side. To start, click on Create Harvester as you did for the harvester options. Change the type of harvester to Harvested using exposed API by external client. Add necessary notes and submit. You will now be presented with an 'API URL' and a 'Token' that has been received from an external source. You now need to push the data from outside to the RIR dashboard. Open the API platform that you use to build and use API's. We used Postman. Copy over the URL and token to push the data to the RIR dashboard.
