You can limit the set of events displayed in the Event Browser by using views. By selecting one of the available views from the View Selector, you display a subset of the available events filtered to include only the events with related CIs included in the view. The View Selector displays only views for which you have permissions.
On the first load of the Event Browser no view is selected. However, if you have selected a view, it is reapplied when you reopen this Event Browser instance. The setting is independently stored for each Event Browser instance.
Tip Use the Show Events Assigned to Me (
) icon to display all events assigned to the current user in the Event Browser. Any applied filters and views are deactivated. Repeated selection toggles between displaying the events assigned to the current user and displaying the events filtered by the last selected filter and view.
For more information about views, see Define and manage views.
View Permissions
-
Assigning views to roles. It is possible to limit which views a user is allowed to use. By restricting access to specified views for a role, it is also possible to control which events a user is allowed to see.
For details, see How to Grant Permissions on Views in Roles.
-
Permission to clear view filter. A permission in the
Operations Console > Event Browserresource can be set to allow the user to clear the view filter and see all events. Users without this permission will only be able to see events that are related to CIs that are contained in the selected view.For details, see How to Grant Permissions on Views in Roles.
-
Locked views. It is possible to disable the View Selector in the Event Browser by configuring a My Workspace Event Browser page with a preselected view. The user will only be able to see the events associated with the preselected view.
