Configuring a New Data Source Index

Now that you have an index for the new data source with all of the right data types, you need to tell the Metron dashboard about this index.

Before you can add a new data telemetry source to the Metron dashboard, you must ensure that you've completed the following steps:

The data telemetry source must be added to HCP.
