Overview
After you deploy the Edge Delta agent, we recommend that you configure your agent. Specifically, you can create and update a configuration file with additional settings.
Review Agent Configuration Options

Agent Settings |
You can use this feature to create and customize an agent's settings in a configuration file. To learn more, see Agent Settings. |
Filters |
A filter refines and transforms collected logs before additional processing takes place. To learn more, see Filters Overview. |
Inputs |
An inputs tells the Edge Delta agent:
Each input allows you to create a label, which is used to map the input to a specific monitoring rule or streaming and alerting destination. To learn more, see Inputs. |
Outputs |
An output tells the Edge Delta agent where to send collected and generated data, such as metrics, patterns, alerts, etc. To learn more, see Create and Manage Outputs and Integrations. |
Processors |
A processor allows users to specify various analytical, statistical, and machine learning-based algorithms to apply to their incoming data. To learn more, see Processors Overview. |
Thresholds |
A threshold defines alerting conditions at the agent level. Each agent locally evaluates the thresholds and then triggers an alert if the threshold is met. To learn more, see Thresholds. |
Variables |
Environment variables are used as values in the configuration files for the Edge Delta agent. Variables are used to pass secrets to the agent in a secure manner. During runtime, the agent's local operating system environment obtains the values for the environment variables. To learn more, see Variables. |
Workflows |
A workflow maps inputs, processors, and outputs that are logically grouped, based on the underlying use-cases and analytics being performed. To learn more, see Workflows. |
