Historical & Daily Jobs

[PaulSylo]

Hi All,

Can someone help me to understand do we need this "historical job" running on a daily basis? If so, why do we need to run this on a daily? sounds very basic, but still help me to get out of assumption out of my mind.

Regards,

Paul

Hello @Paul Sylo 

Performance Analytics collects scores from indicator sources on an ongoing basis. To analyze data that existed prior to setting up Performance Analytics, use a historical data collector to collect scores and snapshots for existing records. Historical data collectors are data collectors with a special configuration. Run historical data collection when:

• Performance Analytics is first set up for an application
• Indicator sources are created
• Indicators are created

So, you mean to say, for the first time when we are running to pull the data, we can run Historical Job and then for daily jobs for running the delta data right?
