Creating a Collection

1. Double-click on the node to enter configuration mode.
2. Click the pencil next to Configuration Name to name your collection
3. Click the Gear Icon next to the credentials drop-down to register your credentials. Click Add New Login and enter a reference name for the credentials under Name, then enter the username and password. Click Done. You can enter more than one set of credentials if you wish.
4. Select the Credentials you wish to use from the Credentials drop-down.
5. Choose the Report Type you wish to pull:
   1. VOD by movie/series
   2. VOD by movie/episode
   3. Linear - key metrics
6. Choose the Aggregation Type of your metrics from the drop-down.
7. If you wish to filter on specific channels enter them in the Channel box separated by comma. Note - channel name is case-sensitive and if no channel is provided, data of all channels will be collected. Note: if you select multiple channels e.g. channel 1,channel 2,channel 3, it will provide aggregated data for all those channels. If you wish to have pulls for multiple channels you will need to set them up as separate configurations and stitch them downstream on Redbird.
8. Use the left-right picker to select the countries you wish to filter on. Note: if you select multiple countries it will provide aggregated data for all those countries. If you wish to have pulls for multiple countries you will need to set them up as separate configurations and stitch them downstream on Redbird.
9. Update Method allows you to select how you want your data to aggregate when you run future data pulls. Append keeps the historical data and adds the future data pulls below. Replace deletes the historical data and generates the new data in its place.
10. Select Run Dates allows you to set the input date period method for your data collection as manual or automatic.
    1. When set to manual, at run time, users will be prompted to provide a start and end date for the collection to run.
    2. When set to automatic, users can define a dynamic date range to include in their configuration by selecting a time period (days, weeks, or months) and initiating the configuration. Since the user selects a time period instead of a specific start and end date, the dates used to run the configuration will change based on the timing of each run.
11. Initial Data Load allows you to upload historical data in bulk as a one-off in the event that you have the data saved on your computer. You can upload your data as a CSV file with no leading/trailing rows or columns and Redbird will run future data collections using the configuration that you set up in previous steps.
