+# Grass Valley AMPP Elastic Recorder Application
+
+The Elastic Recorder is an application connector for the GV AMPP (Agile Media Processing Platform) solution. It will allow you to view the status of the workloads added to a fabric in AMPP and also to configure these workloads.
+
+## About
+
+### Key Features
+
+- **View Elastic Recorder workloads**: With this connector, you can get an overview of the workloads for the "Elastic Recorder" application type, along with their status information.
+- **Send configuration commands**: Using this connector, you will be able to configure specific Elastic Recorder applications.
+- **Get up-to-date status info**: Whenever this connector makes an adjustment to the configuration, it will immediately retrieve status information from the GVAMPP Manager element.
+- **Recover from an element restart**: The manager element monitors the state of the Elastic Recorder element, so it will automatically know when that element is available again after a restart and send the workload status to it.
+
+## Use Case
+
+- **Challenge**: Operators with thousands of workloads need to be able to monitor only the Elastic Recorder workloads, using separate elements.
+- **Solution**: Create one or multiple elements of the Elastic Recorder Application type, and point each workload to the respective element.
+- **Benefit**: No more need to sift through the filtering of the large workloads table. All your Elastic Recorder status information is available in one place.
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> While this connector is only applicable for Elastic Recorder workloads, standalone connectors for other workload types will also become available in the future.
+
+## Technical info
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> For in-depth information on configuring and using the DataMiner connector for Grass Valley AMPP Elastic Recorder Application, refer to the [Technical help page](xref:Connector_help_Grass_Valley_AMPP_Elastic_Recorder_Application_Technical).

+# Grass Valley AMPP Elastic Recorder Application
+
+## About
+
+The Elastic Recorder is an application connector defined for the GV AMPP (Agile Media Processing Platform) solution, designed to show the status and allow the configuration of the workloads added to a fabric in AMPP. It depends on InterApp messages from the Grass Valley AMPP Manager.
+
+## Configuration
+
+### Connections
+
+#### HTTP Connection - Main
+
+This connector uses an HTTP connection and requires the following input during element creation:
+
+HTTP CONNECTION:
+
+- **IP address/host**: The polling IP or URL of the destination.
+- **IP port**: The IP port of the destination (default: *443*).
+
+## Usage
+
+The following data pages are available in an element created with this connector:
+
+- **General**: Contains the **Overview** and **Recording** tables. The Overview table shows the workloads for the Elastic Recorder type, and the Recording table allows you to send *Start*, *Stop*, and *Record* commands, as well as change the source and file name of each workload.
+- **Debug**: Enabled by a toggle button at the bottom of the **General** page, this page includes the Last Login Time, Token Expiration, and Response Status Code.
