Validate Kafka and Datasource Configuration

Validate messaging and datasource configuration required for functional verification of Detect.

Before you begin

  • Unica Platform and Detect services are running.
  • You have a Platform user with administrative permissions.
  • The target database instance and schema are already created and reachable from the application host.

About this task

Use this procedure to create and validate required Kafka and datasource configurations before running functional workflows.

Procedure

  1. Create a datasource configuration entry in Unica Platform.

    Navigate to Settings > Configuration, then open UnicaDetect > Datasources.

    Select New Datasource and provide the datasource name. Then configure database host, port, schema name, username, and password, and save changes.

    Note: The Datasource name chosen in the platform configuration must be exactly the same as the name used when adding the datasource to a specific user.
  2. Map the datasource to the required Platform user account.
    1. Navigate to Settings > Users, open the target user, and assign the datasource in datasource settings.
    2. Ensure datasource name, login, and password match the created datasource configuration.
  3. Verify Kafka cluster entries are available in the Platform configuration.

    Use the Platform configuration tree to confirm at least one Kafka cluster name is configured and accessible to integration users.

  4. Verify required datasources are configured and accessible to the logged-in user.

    Confirm datasource visibility by checking both the configuration tree and assigned user datasource list.

  5. Validate configuration visibility through CLI read-only commands. 
    ./CliTool.sh get-all-datasource-names-for-logged-in-user
./CliTool.sh get-all-kafka-cluster-names
    The command output lists expected datasource and Kafka cluster names for the authenticated user.
