Making a shape filter Alarm Console tabs when clicked

If you add a shape data field of type AlarmFilter to a shape, clicking the shape will cause Alarm Console tabs of type Active alarms linked to cards only to show alarms that match the alarm filter specified in the field value.

Tip

For an example, see Ziine > Visual Overview Design Examples view > [linking > ALARM] page.

Configuring the shape data field

Add a shape data field of type AlarmFilter to the shape, and enter an alarm filter as the value, using the same syntax as in the Alarm Console quick filter.

Examples of alarm filters

  • To filter out all alarms and information events containing the word "BBC World":

    BBC World
    
  • To filter out all critical alarms:

    severity:critical
    
  • To filter out all alarms and information events of which the Value column contains "50":

    value:50
    
  • To filter out all alarms with a service impact less than 2:

    "Service Impact"<2

Placeholders

In some cases, it is possible to use placeholders in the filter condition:

  • In EPM environments, the filter condition can contain the [servicefilter] and [servicefiltername] placeholder.
  • If a Service Overview Manager element is used, the filter condition can contain the placeholder [ServiceFilterIdx].
