Configure Your IonReporterUploader Plugin Access Credentials

Overview

This page describes how to configure your Torrent Browser to transfer files to your organization on Ion Reporter Software. ( Beginning with the Ion Reporter Software 4.0 release, you configure the IonReporterUploader plugin with your Ion Reporter Software login ID and password.)

Multiple configurations

The IonReporterUploader plugin now supports multiple configurations, each with a different login and different display name (that you assign). With these multiple configurations, the IonReporterUploader plugin supports the transfer of results from one Torrent Server to different Ion Reporter Software organizations, without the need to change the plugin configuration.

When multiple users (with different Torrent Suite Software logins) configure the IonReporter Uploader plugin, each user can only see (and use) the IonReporterUploader plugin configuration that they created themselves. When multiple users share one Torrent Suite Software login, they can see and use all IonReporterUploader plugin configurations created with that Torrent Suite Software account.

Configure the Uploader plugin in the Torrent Browser

This sections describes the last step in configuring the plugin. You configure the plugin in the Torrent Browser with the Ion Reporter Software authentication token.

See the Ion Reporter Software documentation for the latest configuration information.Both Ion Reporter Software and the Uploader plugin may be updated on a different schedule than Torrent Suite Software (and these documentation pages).

Follow these steps to configure your Ion Reporter Uploader plugin in your Torrent Browser:

  1. Log into the Torrent Browser (as either an ionadmin or a regular user).



  2. Click the Admin gear menu (in the upper right) and select Ion Reporter Configure :







  3. The Ion Reporter Uploader Configuration page opens. If the plugin is not configured yet, thispage opens:







  4. Click the + Add Account menu. For the hosted cloud Ion Reporter Software solution, click Ion Reporter Cloud 4.0 :







    For your own Ion Reporter Server System, click Ion Reporter 4.x .



  5. In the Configure popup, make these entries the hosted cloud Ion Reporter Software solution :

    Field Directions
    Server Type Enable HTTPS.
    Display Name Enter a meaningful name of your choice. This name is used in the run plan template wizard and is seen by other Torrent Browser users. Use only alphanumeric characters, spaces, and underscores.
    Server Enter: 40.dataloader.ionreporter.iontorrent.com
    Port Enter: 443
    Username Enter your Ion Reporter Software login (your email address)
    Password Enter your Ion Reporter Software login password



    For your own Ion Reporter Server System, these entries depend on your location system configuration: Server Type (HTTP or HTTPS), Server, and Port. Ask your local Ion Reporter Server System administrator for these values.

  6. The "Default Account" is the account that is configured by default in run templates and run plans. If this is the main account to be used for file transfers, enable the Default Account checkbox. (You can always change this selection in the run plan template wizard and in the Upload to IR quick link.)



  7. Click the Add button in the bottom right.

As soon as at least one account is successfully configured, the Uploader plugin is ready to transfer files and also launch Ion Reporter Software analyses . If you configure more than one account, you have a choice of accounts to use for the transfers, in the run plan template wizard, the Uploader plugin manual launch page, and the Upload to IR quick link. Each Torrent Browser user can only see the configurations they created, but if several people share a Torrent Browser login account, those people can see and potentially use each others configurations.

Configuration errors

The more common causes of a configuration error are:

  • HTTP is selected instead of HTTPS.
  • The server name is incorrect.
  • The port number is incorrect.
  • The login or password is incorrect or deactivated.

  • There are spaces before or after the server name, port number, username, or password.

See When the IonReporterUploader Plugin is Not Configured for images of what is shown in the IonReporterUploader manual launch page and in the run plan template wizard if the plugin is not configured.
