ForeSite Connect

The ForeSite Connect Package features a Python script that imports data from a specified ForeSite instance into PetroVisor. This script uses the ForeSite API calls to retrieve the data in form of Data Frames.

Details

This package utilizes the ForeSite Connect Python script, providing the capability to define the required API endpoint, select the appropriate request method, and choose whether to export the retrieved data. Authentication and data formatting are fully automated, ensuring a streamlined and secure data integration process.

Required Setup (One-time, Admin only)

An administrator must create two secret workspace values in PetroVisor:

  • ForeSiteUser: Enter your ForeSite username

To complete this setup:

  1. Open the admin application
  2. In the content tab on the right panel, select “Workspace Values”

  5. Enable the “Secret” toggle on the right
  6. Provide an appropriate description and enter the value

After configuration, these credentials are securely stored and remain inaccessible to other users.
