Data Sources

A data source within JobR represents the system from which JobR will extract information. The REST API URL and associated administrator credentials for the data source are stored as ServiceNow Connection and Credentials aliases. These will need to be configured before the data source can be used. 

REST API URL 

The default REST API URL can be found in the relevant product documentation 

The defaults are: 

Once you have defined a data source, click on test connectivity to check that everything is configured properly. 

Credentials 

  • For NetBackup, we recommend that you create an API Key for an admin account. You can do this through the NetBackup Web Console. 
  • For Veeam, the User ID and password of an admin user are needed. 

To add a new Data Source

JobR Admins can add new Data Sources. 

  • Click the New button found at top right of your screen.
  • Enter the details of your new Data Source.
  • Click Submit to save.
  • Click Test Connectivity to test that your new Data Source is connected successfully. An error will be displayed if it fails. 

All jobs relating to each Data Source can be viewed by selecting the Data Source and moving across the various tabs available.
