Managing subscriptions

After subscribing to an event endpoint, a subscription is created for you. You can locate those event endpoints that you are currently subscribed to by opening and reviewing the Event Endpoint Management Subscriptions page.

The Subscriptions page displays all of your subscriptions, listing the name of each event endpoint you are subscribed to, together with the related tags and associated usernames for each. You can create more than one subscription to a single event endpoint.

Accessing the Subscription page

  1. Log in to your Event Endpoint Management UI from a supported web browser (see how to determine the login URL for your Event Endpoint Management instance).
  2. In the navigation pane, click Subscriptions. A list of all of your subscriptions is displayed, showing all the event endpoints you are subscribed to, together with associated tags and usernames.

Removing credentials and subscriptions

Credentials are removed when the associated subscription is deleted. You can delete a subscription and remove its credentials by clicking Delete Delete icon in the row of the subscription.

Note: After removing a subscription, the username and password for that subscription becomes invalid, and cannot be used again. You can create new subscriptions to the same event endpoint, but any new subscription to the same event endpoint is generated with a different username and password.

To remove a subscription

  1. Log in to your Event Endpoint Management UI from a supported web browser (see how to determine the login URL for your Event Endpoint Management instance).
  2. In the navigation pane, click Subscriptions.
  3. Locate the subscription that you would like to revoke.
  4. Click Delete Delete icon in the row of the subscription you want to remove.
  5. Read the Revoke subscriber credentials warning, and provide confirmation by entering the subscriber username in the field exactly as it is displayed in the message.
  6. Click Revoke to remove the certificate.

When the credentials are revoked, a confirmation message is displayed, and the subscription is removed from your subscriptions list.

By revoking a subscription, any client that uses that subscription is no longer able to consume or produce data after the next gateway poll of the Event Manager (default is 30 seconds). To reconnect that client, a new subscription with new credentials is required.
