Can't have 2 stand alone flows connecting to the u...
# umh-support

Hi, I wanted to make 2 standalone flows 1 that pushes the data from the historian to a websocket and the other to SQL. But I noticed only 1 at a time can be active. When I disable one the other pick ups. But there is always 1 with 0 input. I am working with an instance of umh-core on v0.43.1.

ah, did you set the client id or something?
there is some config option that sets like client id or something
if this is the same and not unique, then they will share the same state of what has been read
consumer_group it is
by default it is the same (except for stream processors for example that will auto-configure it to be unique)
b
No, I only had this: input: uns: umh_topic: umh.v1.Gullegem.._historian. So I should set a consumer_group on both so they have a different one, because they will default to the same in a stand alone flow?
j
yes!
b
Great, It works, Thank you!

just faced the same pitfall (not setting consumer group explicitly). i think it would be nice to note that in the documentation

we will do something better: put it in the UI with a warning if you dont set it specifically. it is technically in the documentation, but the documentation is also big and we dont expect everyone to always search through the full docs
