Source Configuration
A gateway configuration is a configuration that defines what a Capture Edge Gateway collects, where it is stored, how it is synced to the cloud, etc.

Top-right actions
The configuration editor exposes four actions in the top-right.
1) Advanced options toggle
Enable or disable advanced options. For basic configuration the non-advanced options will be enough. If you miss a page or option described here, you should enable the advanced options first.
2) </> JSON editor
Opens the JSON editor overlay.
- View or edit the configuration in raw JSON.
- Intended for advanced users.
- Useful for copy/paste workflows:
- between Capture Edge and the portalZ
- between environments
Editing JSON bypasses UI validation and can break the configuration. Use only when you understand the schema.
3) Push configuration to linked edge gateways
Pushes the current configuration to all gateways linked to this configuration.
Pushing a configuration triggers a restart of the Capture Edge services on the affected gateways. This results in a short pause in data collection.
You must save changes before pushing. Unsaved changes are not included in the push.
4) Linked gateways / delete menu (three dots)
Opens a menu with management actions:
- Show linked edge gateways: displays the gateways currently using this configuration.
- Delete configuration: deletes the configuration.
Deleting a configuration affects any gateways still linked to it. Ensure the configuration is no longer in use before deleting.
5) Save
Saves the configuration.
- Green: there are unsaved changes.
- Gray: everything is saved (nothing to save).
Saving stores the configuration but does not immediately apply it to edge gateways. To apply changes:
- use Push to update all linked gateways, or
- update a single gateway from the Edge Gateways page.
