What’s connected.
Connect and automatically process data from local file systems or network shares using Seal's IoT App file watching capabilities (for CSV, Excel, text, etc.) or write custom file parsing scripts. Ingest instrument outputs, logs, or other file-based data into Seal for centralized management and compliance.
Connection setup and permissions
Connect through Seal’s IoT app or a scoped integration. The instrument model, software version and available interfaces determine the connection method.

Access and write-back
Reading records and writing back are separate decisions. Define which records are in scope, whose permissions apply and which changes require approval.
Data and failure handling
Agree the field mapping, identifiers, units and source of record. Test missing or duplicate data, interrupted transfers and recovery before relying on the connection.
Verification and release
Review the configured connection for its intended use. Keep the requirements, checks and evidence with the change, and approve the release through your team’s controls.
