ENLYZE data source

Overview of the available data and functionality of the ENLYZE data sources in Grafana.

With Grafana you can easily visualize data from the ENLYZE Manufacturing Data Platform. You can use either a self-hosted Grafana instance or Platform Grafana. Two data sources are available for retrieving data. Here you can learn more about these connections and what data you can access with them.

ENLYZE Grafana Plugin

The ENLYZE Grafana Plugin was developed by ENLYZE. It lets you retrieve machine data such as line speeds, temperature, and pressure values. This data source is therefore ideal for time series displays, status indicators, and comparisons of target and actual values.

The query editor consists of dropdown fields for site, machine, and variable. All active variables from the ENLYZE app can be retrieved.

The ENLYZE Plugin is available by default in Platform Grafana. If you run your own Grafana instance, see Install the ENLYZE Plugin for installation instructions.

Infinity data source

The Infinity data source is a plugin developed by Grafana that serves as a connector for APIs. This makes it ideal for connecting to the ENLYZE APIarrow-up-right. You can find more information about the Infinity data source in the official Grafana documentationarrow-up-right.

A data source connected to the ENLYZE API provides direct access to several predefined data tables. Detailed descriptions of the included data can be found in the linked API documentation.

This data source is versatile. For a first look at using the Infinity data source, see the tutorial 02 API Queries.

Install the ENLYZE Plugin

If you run your own Grafana instance and want to use the ENLYZE Plugin, you can install it manually. The plugin is not listed in the Grafana plugin catalog.

We can create a signed version of the ENLYZE Plugin specifically for your instance. For this we need the root_urlarrow-up-right of your Grafana instance. After receiving the signed plugin, it must be installed manually. The Grafana documentationarrow-up-right provides detailed instructions for manual plugin installation.

After installation, you need to add the new data source, which can be found under the name Enlyze.

If the data source does not appear as an option, restart Grafana.

During data source setup you will be prompted to enter the ENLYZE API token, which authenticates your access to the ENLYZE Manufacturing Data Platform.

If you want to use the ENLYZE Plugin, contact your ENLYZE representative. We will provide you with the plugin and the API token and help you with the installation.
