Views - Filtering for Devices in the IGEL UMS

A view is a selection of devices according to definable criteria which are logically linked one after another. You can generate views, edit or delete views and export results of a view in various formats (e.g. XML). This tree structure can also contain sub-directories for arranging views.

The Search feature of the UMS Web App is a successor to views in the UMS Console. It does not currently include all the criteria that are available for views but the range of the criteria will constantly be expanded. See Search for Devices in the IGEL UMS Web App

You can use a view to define a scheduled job for a specific selection of devices, e.g. a firmware update. For more on jobs, see Jobs - Sending Automated Commands to Devices in the IGEL UMS.

In views, device information is displayed in a table format. To specify which columns are shown in the view, proceed as follows:
