In contrast to FX, where streams can be executed by a client or server directly for various short-lived workflows (taking into account the stream timeout after 60 seconds), streams within the IO, CO & HK environment typically have a longer runtime and may require assignment to other render nodes with higher priority.
To address this scenario, profiles can be generated to meet all these requirements:
Attach a Metadata Set
Set job priority
Assign a profile/stream to specific group(s)
Hide it from users
Assign the job to dedicated user(s) or render node(s)
Profiles are used to describe connections between workflows, metadata, user groups, and render nodes/users.
They help define who can see and execute a specific profile, what information is sent when a job is carried out, and which render nodes in the pool can handle the job.
In this section, we will provide explanations for all relevant functions and fields related to profile management.
Displays the name assigned to the profile by its creator.
Shows the type of stream used in the selected profile. Clicking on the name opens the stream in the Stream Designer for further customization.
Indicates the name of the Prestream used in the selected profile. Clicking on the name opens the stream in the Stream Designer.
Presents the name of the stream used in the selected profile. Clicking on the name opens the stream in the Stream Designer.
Shows the name of the metadata set used in the selected profile. Clicking on the name switches the view to metadata.
Displays the default priority assigned to the profile.
Initiates a dialog for entering the name of a new group by using the FX - Create_Group trigger. Clicking "Cancel" ends the dialog, and clicking "Save" creates the group. The "Save" option is linked to the Streams trigger.
Enables the user to perform various actions on existing profiles, including deletion, duplication, and editing.
Displays all profiles created in the system.
Displays all profiles created in the system and filters the profiles displayed in the list view when selecting a group.
The profiles will be displayed in alphabetical order based on their profile names whenever they appear in a list or dropdown view.
The only way to modify the listing is by renaming a profile or by adding a prefix (numeric or character-based).
