Viewing the Vocera Media Adapter Requirements

The minimum requirements for a Vocera Media Adapter are described here.

Ports

Vocera Platform will use port 445/tcp to connect with the Media storage appliance. Ports 137-139/tcp may optionally be used for NetBios/Name resolution.

Datasets

An adapter defines a default Dataset structure in order to function. Attributes are organized by Datasets and store the information required by the adapter. Adapters use this data during the process of receiving and sending messages.

Not all adapters require Datasets to function. When an adapter does require Datasets, the system will determine if they already exist. If they do not exist, the system will create the needed Datasets.

When creating or editing an adapter, use the following information to select the appropriate datasets in the Required Datasets section.

The IDENTITIES Dataset stores the user's system and interface identities.
The MEDIA Dataset stores all media information. This can be files such as documents, images, or video.
The MEDIA_METADATA Dataset these are the details associated with a specific piece of media.
The PATIENTS Dataset stores all patient information.
The USERS Dataset stores all Vocera users.

IDENTITIES Dataset

Element	Name	Reverse Name	Key	Reverse Key	Required	Type	Description
Attribute	name	N/A	True	N/A	N/A	String	Attribute that stores the name of the user's identity.
Link	usr	identities	False	False	N/A	Many-to-one	The IDENTITIES Dataset is linked to the USERS Dataset, and the link order is n:1 (many identities associated to one user)

MEDIA Dataset

Element	Name	Reverse Name	Key	Reverse Key	Required	Type	Description
Attribute	media_id	N/A	True	N/A	N/A	String	Attribute that stores the unique identifier for the stored media.
Attribute	media_created_at	N/A	False	N/A	True	Date/Time	Attribute that stores when the media was created or made available.
Attribute	mime_type	N/A	False	N/A	True	String	Attribute that stores the MIME type of the stored media data.
Attribute	storage_media_id	N/A	False	N/A	True	String	Attribute that stores the storage provider identifier for the media data.
Attribute	storage_provider	N/A	False	N/A	True	String	Attribute that stores the storage provider holding the media data.
Attribute	deleted_at	N/A	False	N/A	False	Date/Time	Attribute that stores the date and time the media data was deleted.
Attribute	storage_location	N/A	False	N/A	False	String	Attribute that stores the configured storage provider location for the media data.
Attribute	thumbnail_mime_type	N/A	False	N/A	False	String	Attribute that stores the MIME type of the thumbnail for the media data.
Link	creator	created_media	False	False	N/A	Many-to-one	The MEDIA Dataset is linked to the USERS Dataset, and the link order is n:1 (many medias associated to one user)
Link	metadata	media	False	True	N/A	One-to-many	The MEDIA Dataset is linked to the MEDIA_METADATA Dataset, and the link order is 1:n (one media associated to many media_metadatas)
Link	patient	media	False	False	N/A	Many-to-one	The MEDIA Dataset is linked to the PATIENTS Dataset, and the link order is n:1 (many medias associated to one patient)

MEDIA_METADATA Dataset

Element	Name	Reverse Name	Key	Reverse Key	Required	Type	Description

Link	media	metadata	True	False	N/A	Many-to-one	The MEDIA_METADATA Dataset is linked to the MEDIA Dataset, and the link order is n:1 (many media_metadatas associated to one media)

PATIENTS Dataset

Element	Name	Reverse Name	Key	Reverse Key	Required	Type	Description
