Method Description

By folder

Click Home to show objects in their folder structure. The objects you see are the objects that have been shared with you.

The folders you see include all non-secured folders and the secured folders that have been shared with you.

The folder tree is used to organize the objects published to Intelligence Central. A folder is created, or an existing folder is selected, when an object is published. Folders can also be created through the Web Console. For more information about folders, see Folders.

See View Object Details for more information about the Details pane.

The No folder assigned folder is a special folder.

  • The No folder assigned folder holds all objects not yet moved (or assigned) to other folders.
  • The No folder assigned folder cannot be moved, renamed or deleted.
  • The No folder assigned folder cannot have sub folders.

By search

Click Home. Use the search bar. The search results highlight text in the object name, object publisher, modified date, and object type fields that match the search string.

List just the objects you own

From your username, select My Profile. Alternatively, click Administration | Users and select your username.

The objects owned by you that are in folders visible to you are listed in the Published Objects pane.

  • Private—Click to hide/show the objects that are visible only to you (as the owner) and the Administrators.
  • Shared—Click to hide/show the objects that are also shared with other Toad Intelligence Central users.

TIP: Secured folder visibility privileges override object owner (publisher) visibility privileges.

List objects shared with you

From your username, select My Profile. Alternatively, click Administration | Users and select your username. The objects shared with you are listed in the Shared Objects pane.

TIP: Select a username other than your own. The objects this user has shared with you are listed in the Published Objects pane. The objects shared with both you and this user are listed in the Shared Objects pane.

Click Administration | Groups and select the group. Objects shared with this group are listed in the Shared Objects pane. If you are a member of this group then you will see all shared objects. If you are not a member of this group then you will only see the objects shared with you; there may be additional objects shared with this group that you do not have the right to see.

Tags are an organizational tool. Tags are collectively managed by the users of Toad Intelligence Central.
