Endpoints Overview

Endpoints are individual file storage locations that send or receive files using Jet. Endpoints can be assigned to on-premises Signiant SDCX Servers or cloud storage using Amazon AWS or Google Cloud Storage.

The Endpoints page displays a list of your registered endpoints, their type, current status, creation date, location, and software version.

Adding Endpoints

SDCX Servers

Before you can add an on-premises endpoint, you must deploy a Signiant SDCX Server.

Note: If you previously downloaded the SDCX Server software but have not installed it, you must still use a new registration key from the Download SDCX Server Software dialog in the Signiant Console to install the software on each source or destination server.

Once a server is successfully registered, it can be added as an endpoint.

To add an SDCX Server endpoint:

1. On the Endpoints page, click the Add button.

2. Select On-Premises.

   

3. On the Add On-Premises Endpoint page, enter an Endpoint Name.

4. Select an SDCX Server from the drop-down menu.

   

5. Configure any advanced settings, such as relays and endpoints restricted to outbound connections.

6. Click Add.

Once an endpoint is added, it can be used to build a route with an on-premises SDCX Server or a cloud storage endpoint.

Note: The same server can be used for more than one endpoint.

AWS Storage

Creating an AWS endpoint allows you to connect cloud storage as a source or destination for files transferred to or from an on-premises SDCX Server.

To add an AWS storage endpoint:

1. On the Endpoints page, click the Add button.

2. Select AWS.

   

3. On the Add AWS Endpoint page, enter an Endpoint Name.

4. Select a Region from the drop-down menu.

   

5. Click Add.

Once an AWS endpoint is created, it can be used to build a route with an on-premises SDCX Server.

Google Cloud Storage

Creating a Google Cloud endpoint allows you to connect cloud storage as a source or destination for files transferred to or from an on-premises SDCX Server. Jet supports single, dual, and multi-region storage buckets.

To add a Google Cloud Storage endpoint:

1. On the Endpoints page, click the Add button.

2. Select Google Cloud Storage.

   

3. On the Add Google Cloud Endpoint page, enter an Endpoint Name.

4. Select a Location type, and choose single region, dual-region or multi-region.

   Note: Your location type is set when you create a bucket. For more information, see the Google Cloud documentation.

5. Select a Region from the drop-down menu.

   

6. Click Add.

Once a Google Cloud endpoint is created, it can be used to build a route with an on-premises SDCX Server.

Deleting Endpoints

Before you can remove an endpoint, you must delete all jobs associated with the endpoint.

To delete an endpoint:

1. On the Endpoints page, hover over the endpoint you want to delete.

2. Click More Options.

   

3. Click Delete and confirm the deletion.

Note: When an endpoint associated with a route is deleted, the route becomes invalid and can no longer be used.
