After the test period, Dahua confirms your reports are right, and from then on they really count. Later, Dahua or your auditor may ask for proof of what you sent in a given period, and saying it was sent isn't enough.

With the "Dahua Integration", you go live without setting anything up again, reports start from your go-live day, and you have proof of everything delivered with each run's trace ID.

## Follow the Steps

You go live once Dahua confirms your test reports are right, and sends you the production credentials.

### Moving to Production

Save the production credentials first, then choose production:

1. Open " **Connect** ".
2. Under "Production credentials", type the "Client ID" and "Client secret", then click " **Save and test** ".
3. Click " **Use production** ", then click " **Use production** " to confirm.

From the next send, reports go to Dahua's live system, and no longer to test.

> **Note:** The address of Dahua's production environment is set by the "Edara" team, so if you can't choose production after saving the credentials, contact support.

### Setting the Day Reports Start From

So that nothing from before go-live is sent to production, set the "Reporting start date" to your go-live day:

1. Open " **Settings** ", then " **General** ".
2. Choose the "Reporting start date".
3. Click " **Save changes** ".

Nothing dated before this day is sent.

### Exporting Proof of Sending

The proof holds what was delivered to Dahua in the period, with the "Dahua trace ID" for each run:

1. Open " **Runs** ", then click " **Export evidence** ".
2. Choose "From" and "To".
3. Choose the "Format": " **CSV, opens in Excel** " or " **JSON** ".
4. Click " **Download** ".

## Important Things to Know

- If you'll go live in a different organization in "Edara", set it up there from the start, as in [Setting Up the "Dahua Integration"](https://help.getedara.com/en/articles/90000022-setting-up-the-dahua-integration) .
- To reset the setup, pause sending first, then click "Reset setup" in "Connect". What was sent to Dahua stays with Dahua.
- To follow each run and its held-back rows, see [Previewing Reports and Activating Daily Sending in the "Dahua Integration"](https://help.getedara.com/en/articles/90000024-previewing-reports-and-activating-daily-sending-in-the-dahua-integration) .

## Try It Yourself

Sample data — it doesn't affect any real data. Click both production credentials boxes then "Save and test", choose production, then export proof of sending from "Runs".

## You May Be Wondering

**When do I go live?**

Once Dahua confirms your test reports are right, and sends you the production credentials.

**Do I need to set things up again to go live?**

No, the mapping and settings stay as they are, unless you move to a different organization in "Edara".

**How do I keep data from before go-live from being sent?**

Set the "Reporting start date" to your go-live day under "Settings" › "General".

**What's in the proof of sending?**

What was delivered to Dahua in the period you choose, with the "Dahua trace ID" for each run, as CSV or JSON.
