Reporting Groups
From Reporting Groups
, groups within the same organization can be created and preconfigured using different criteria to meet the needs of the departments, branches, or user groups that comprise them.
It is also possible to know which users and which roles have access to the reporting group. As well as activating remote assistance functionalities.
Creating reporting groups
To create a reporting group, press the New
button and fill in the following fields:
- Tenant: it is a dropdown, to select the tenant in which the new reporting group will be created.
- Name: name that the reporting group will have.
- Environment: opens a dropdown to select the environment in which the reporting group will be.
- Destination of the Patch Policy: opens a dropdown to select which patch policy the reporting group will be subject to.
- Fishing pattern: it is an optional field. Allows indicating the regular expression (RegEx) that will be used to add devices to the reporting group. For example:
company
(includes all devices whose names contain the word "company") or.*2023$
(includes devices whose name ends in "2023").
Once the reporting group has been created, it will appear in the table of the list view. The Reload
button is very helpful if you want to refresh the list to ensure the reporting group has been created.
Fishing pattern
The fishing pattern allows automatically grouping in a reporting group the devices that share a regular expression (RegEx) in the name.
The devices that form the reporting group will be updated every hour. It is an automatic process that checks if there are new devices matching the configured RegEx. If there are, the devices will be moved to the corresponding reporting group.
It is important to pay attention to all the active RegEx to avoid conflicts between reporting groups, as it may happen that when creating a new one, its RegEx matches an existing one.
