Obtaining the Esri IDs and Network URL

Log in to the Esri portal for your installation to get the Esri Map, Building, and Floor IDs and the Esri network URL.

Logging in to the Esri Portal

Log in to the Esri portal for your installation with Esri administrator credentials.

Before you begin

You must have the following information.
  • The Esri Portal URL https://host.domain/portal.
  • The Esri Port administrator credentials, or credential for a user that can access the organization’s content.

For information about the Esri URL and the initial Esri administration log-in credentials that are generated during installation for IBM TRIRIGA Application Suite on Red Hat container platform, see the next section.

Procedure

Open the Esri Portal URL and log in.

Obtaining log-in details for a Red Hat OpenShift environment

Log in to the Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform console and find the generated values for tasGisAdminUrl, ADMIN_USERNAME, and initial generated ADMIN_PASSWORD.

About this task

These steps apply when you are using an ArcGIS instance that was installed with the IBM TAS GIS operator. If you are using a different instance of ArcGIS Enterprise, you need details of the proxy server that is used to configure the link between Tririga and ArcGIS instead.

For more information about configuring the proxy server, see Configuring Indoor Maps.

For more information about CA certificates, see Additional CA certificates.

Procedure

  1. Open your project, for example ibm-tas-gis.
  2. Select Installed Operators.
  3. Select the IBM TAS GIS operator and on the Location Service tab, select arcgis.
  4. Select the YAML tab and find the value for tasGisAdminUrl, which is the URL that you can use to connect to this instance of ArcGIS Enterprise.
  5. Select Secrets, open the arcgis-gis-tas-setup-admin-secret secret, and find the following values to log in as an administrator to the Esri Portal:
    • ADMIN_USERNAME is the name that you provided in the CR.
    • ADMIN_PASSWORD is the temporary password that is generated during installation. This password cannot be changed.
      Note: After you log in for the first time, you can change this password to meet your company standards. If you change this password, the secret is not automatically updated and cannot be manually changed. Ensure that you record your new password.

  4. Note the id parameter value in the browser URL, which is the value to enter in the Esri Map ID field in TRIRIGA. For example, 9a8068284e614be3bdcb1cd26f05499a.
    This image shows the id parameter value.

Obtaining Esri Building ID and Esri Floor ID

Procedure

  1. On the Web Map details screen, click the link to the main layer under Layers. In the following example, the link is called TRIRIGA_Demo_Web_Map_MIL1.
    This image shows TRIRIGA demo web map.
  2. On the layer details screen under Layers, click the link to the main layer. For example, TRIRIGA_Demo_Web_Map_MIL1.
    This image shows TRIRIGA web map link.
  3. This opens the REST services descriptor, which describes the technical information about the service. Click Levels under the Layers section.
    This image shows the REST services descriptor.
    If this doesn’t exist, then no building levels have been published for this web map, you must consult the administrator.
  4. This opens another REST services descriptor, which describes the technical information about the Levels layer. Scroll to the bottom of this screen.
    This image shows the REST service descriptor.
  5. In the Supported Operations section, click Query.
    This image shows the query link.
  6. This opens a form that allows the layer to be queried. Fill in the details as:
    • In the Where field, add the value 1=1
    • In the Out Fields field, add the value FACILITY_ID, LEVEL_ID (do not avoid the comma)
    • All other fields must be left as default values
    This image shows the query: levels form.
  7. Scroll to the bottom and click Query (GET).
    This image shows the query get UI button.
  8. The page will reload. Scroll to the bottom of the screen to see the records that matched. This is a list of each facility and level.
    This image shows the list of each facility and level.
  9. Choose the Facility and Level that you need for the configuration. A campus can have more than one facility defined in this layer, but TRIRIGA works on a building-by-building basis, so choose the details for your current building.
  10. Enter the FACILITY_ID in the Esri Building ID field and the LEVEL_ID in the Esri Floor ID field.

Obtaining Esri Network URL

Procedure

  1. In the Esri Portal, select Tools > Network Analysis.
