Redis step-by-step data integration via the Layer2 Cloud Connector

Use this step-by-step-instruction to get through the whole product and data integration configuration easily. Some steps require a copy-paste task of code snippets. Please follow the recommendations in this instruction closely.

Before you can proceed with the configuration, please be aware that

• You need to configure your Redis and create a database and credential for the Layer2 Cloud Connector. 
• Copy your Redis password and the endpoint address. You will need it for the connection string in the connector.
  

Specific Connection Settings for your Redis integration

Please copy and paste this connection string into the designated field like described in Step 2.5 of the step-by-instruction above.

Server=<your_redis_endpoint_address>;
Port=<your_redis_endpoint_port>;
DefineTables=Logs=logging:*;
Other='BatchSize=1';

Select statement example:

SELECT * FROM Logs;

Don't forget to paste your Redis password into the designated field and set your primary key.

We know that our redis lists are named logging with the pattern name:ID. We can create a DefineTables property to map this into a table.

If this works, you will be able to preview your data. You will be redirected to a confirmation page.

You can get all available tables with:  

SELECT * FROM sys_tables;

You can get all available views with:  

SELECT * FROM sys_views;

Known limitations and workarounds

Please take into account our advice and known limitations:

• Connection direction
  The connection direction can be bi-directional. Please keep in mind that if you didn’t use Redis hashes to create your data in Redis, you can face problems in the bi-directional connection once some values are mapped back from SharePoint into Redis resulting in more columns than desired.
