Actions menu

Selecting Actions menu () in the page header on the Device events page provides the following options:

  • Enable notification. Opens the Notify view dialog, enabling you to send or schedule notifications to alert other users about device events.

  • Enable destination. Opens the Enable destination dialog, allowing you to push selected device events to a workflow manager.

    Important! To use this feature, users must have the Event Filters permission in IEE.

  • Export. Creates a file containing all event items included in the table. The export file renders with all current filter, sorting, column order, and column visibility options applied. In the Export dialog that appears, select Spreadsheet for an .xlsx file or Comma separated values for a .csv file. The file saves to your browser's configured download folder.

    Important! The export file contains all items returned by the applied filters, regardless of the number of rows shown on the screen. For example, if the Items per page value (beneath the table) is 10 but there are a total of 12,000 items in the filtered queue, then 12,000 rows appear in the export file.

  • Order columns. Enables you to adjust the order of the columns. In the Table column order dialog that appears, click and drag the order icons () to the wanted locations in the column list, and then select Update. To save this configuration, create a saved view (see Save view below).

    Note: The Table column order dialog lists only the columns that are currently visible in the table.

  • Show columns. Enables you to adjust which columns are visible or hidden. In the Table column visibility dialog that appears, select or clear the column names as needed, and then select Update. To save this configuration for future use, create a saved view (see the following Save view image).

    Tip: With a long list of columns, you can enter a keyword in the Filter box. For example, type device to narrow down the list so that you'll see only the Device ID and Device type column options.

  • Save view. Enables you to save the column views and the current filter values for later use. In the Save view dialog that appears, select a view type: a Project view is available to you and other users, and a Personal view is available only to you.

    From the Category dropdown menu, make sure that Device operations is selected (required for the Device Events page). Assign a Name to the view and select Save.

    From the Category dropdown menu, select an available option: Device operations (default selection), Data quality, Data collection, or Data distribution. Assign a Name to the view and click Save.

    Tip: If the view that you are editing is already saved with a designated name, you can select Save as to create a separate saved view with a new name—without overwriting the current saved view. For more information, see View menu.

  • Update view. Allows you to edit the saved view that you are currently using. After making your changes, click Save.
