Installing U.S. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) Data Feeds Content Integration

Installation overview

This section provides instructions for configuring the integration. This document is not intended to suggest optimum installations or configurations.

It is assumed that the reader has both working knowledge of all products involved, and the ability to perform the tasks outlined in this section. Administrators should have access to the product documentation for all products to install the required components.

The prerequisite use cases must be installed and working prior to the integration. Perform the necessary tests to confirm that this is true before proceeding.

Prerequisites (system requirements)

The Regulatory Intelligence Items application is required for installation and operation of the U.S. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) Data Feeds Content Integration. It serves as a target application for the data feed.

Setting up data feed

The following data feed issued as a part of the integration process:

For data feed configuration, perform the following steps:

  1. Log into the Archer platform and click the Administration workspace tab.

  1. Click Data Feeds in the Navigation Menu under Integration.

  1. Click the Import link and browse to the [File_Name].dfx5.

  1. Verify settings on the General Information tab. Be sure to change the status to Active before using the feed.

  1. Verify the settings on the Transport tab.

    Note: Default Retrieval Count is set to 1 Day. Update this as per your requirement.

  1. Verify the settings on the Source Definition tab. This will be pre-configured to identify the necessary fields to generate a score snapshot.

    Note: The Source Field on the Source Definition tab will be automatically populated when you import the data feed. Repopulating the fields by clicking on “Load Fields” will lead to removal of one pre-populated field from the list (i.e. Source). Hence, add a new field by clicking on “Add New” and rename as “Source” and select field type “Static Text” with appropriate value in the Text editor (see screenshots below). Also, be sure that the data mappings are configured correctly after the load fields.

  1. Verify the settings and mappings on the Data Map tab.

    Note: If an article with same GUID is provided by multiple feeds, then Source is replaced in the record. If you want to append the source information, update the field configuration to allow multiple values in selection and then update the data mapping configuration to append for the Source field.

  1. The Key Definition fields should be pre-populated based on the information from the DFX import file. Ensure that the Key Definition field (GUID) is set.

  1. The final configuration step is to schedule the data feed. Click the Run Configuration tab and configure the frequency and start time of the Data Feed.

  1. Click Save to apply your configuration to the data feed. Click on Run Now to run the data feed immediately. Click the data feed status (Completed/Faulted/Warning etc) link for additional information on the status of the feed or to troubleshoot any feed errors.
