Event Management

• Hide certain alerts from the list by using Acknowledge option. This might be useful if you don’t want to be distracted by the accidental warning or “expected” error.
• Explore details about selected events. Refer to the details pane in the bottom of the screen for more details and statistics.
• Export selected events into comma-separated values (CSV) file for analytic or archival purposes.

Searching

The lists of accounts, mailboxes, task or events might be very long and hard to manage. Use Search box above this list to look for items matching the certain criteria.

Advanced Search

You can refine your results by using the advanced search operators. Refer to Lucene Tutorial for the full information on search syntax.

Search by Date Range

You can select period or use Custom range link to specify desired data range for events.

Filtering

You can quickly filter out the certain items based on the predefined criteria. The applied filters are shown before the search box.

To apply a filter, simply click the desired facet on the left of the list. To clear it, click the close icon in the filter box.

The filters may be automatically applied, when you navigate across the interface. For example, navigate from assessment reports, view details on the specific task, or click links in notifications.
