Description files

You must create a description file where you describe all fields that the input data can contain, and which Event(s) the input data is aimed for. See Description files.

Samples

You can load one or more StreamIN samples to the StreamIN tool, and use these samples when you create a StreamIN configuration. See StreamIN samples.

StreamIN configuration

The description file does not describe how to structure the fields. In the StreamIN tool, you specify how to organize the input data as fields and blocks of fields. See Creating a StreamIN configuration.
