Understanding custom extractors


  1. To move data from source to CDF, it is mentioned we might require custom extractors. Can you explain in very simple terms what exactly are the extractors , how to create them ? Is it just a piece of code to connect two systems ? 
  2. Events is one the resource type. Do events (like 2hr shutdown) needs to be created manually in CDF or it is detected automatically based on the value of time series data ?

  1. An extractor is a piece of software that reads data from one place, and writes it to another. You can use the cognite extractor utils to help write them: https://cognite-extractor-utils.readthedocs-hosted.com/en/latest/?badge=latest
  2. Events are a distinct resource type and you have to create them using our SDKs or APIs.
