Integrate Phonism with EdgeView

To link a top-level Collection to a Tenant in Phonism:

  1. In EdgeView, navigate to Devices > Collections > Add Collection. Create a top-level Collection of the same name as the Phonism Service Provider.  

  2. When creating this collection, enter the API key generated in Create Phonism Service Provider. This API key is generated at the Service Provider level on the Phonism side. 
    EdgeView uses this API key to search Phonism for the given Collection name.

    Note

    Since this is a case sensitive lookup, make sure that the case of the Collection name matches the case of the Phonism Service Provider.
