Configuring Clearance plugin properties - Clearance plugin 3.5.116.0

To export recordings from a Security Center system to a Genetec Clearance™ account, you must connect the Clearance plugin role to the Clearance account.

1. In the Plugins task, select the plugin role from the entity browser, and click the Properties tab.
2. Configure the following:
   

   Account ID

   Displays the Clearance account ID. Click Import file () and select the JSON configuration file you want to use to import Clearance account connection settings. These settings include the Account ID that is used to connect the Clearance plugin to a Clearance account.

   Polling interval

   Specifies how frequently the Clearance plugin connects back to Clearance for updates or sending back new requests.

   Archive destination folder

   Specifies a folder location where video is temporarily stored during the export process. After the export completes, the video is deleted.

   NOTE: If you are running the Clearance plugin on an expansion server, using the Browse button to set the archive destination folder opens the file explorer for the local machine, but saving the destination creates the folder on the directory server. As a workaround, enter the correct file path in the Archive destination folder text field.

   Use proxy

   Click to use a forward proxy server to connect to the Clearance plugin.

   Use throttling

   Activate throttling to run exports sequentially. Disable throttling to run exports concurrently, for a maximum of five concurrent exports or video requests by evidence processes at a time.

   NOTE: Bandwidth throttling is only possible if the proxy server is set to off.

   Maximum bandwidth

   If you activated throttling, define a maximum bandwidth for your exports in MBPS.

   Hide camera selection hierarchy

   Import entities from any area or federation without showing their tree hierarchy, resulting in a faster import process.

   Tip: After you activate this setting, restart Config Tool for the changes to take effect.

3. If you require a forward proxy server, click Use proxy and enter your:
   1. IPv4 address or hostname.
   2. Port number.
   3. Username.
   4. Password.
   5. Click Apply.
      
4. If you want to implement bandwidth throttling, do the following:
   1. Set Use throttling to On.
   2. Define a maximum bandwidth value
      
   NOTE: The bandwidth throttling feature is not available when the proxy service is enabled.
5. Click Apply.
