Navigating the Dashboard

We've recently updated the look of our Dashboard. All of the features you love still exist, though you may need a different path to get to them. 

One of the biggest changes is the navigation. After gathering feedback from customers, we removed the sidebar in favour of a header for basic site navigation. Wherever possible, we've also included search and sorting features.

The Header

The header is available at the top of every page in the Dashboard.

Properties Page

When you initially log in, you'll land on the Properties page, where you can get a quick summary of all of your properties individually and as an average at the bottom.

If you have multiple properties, type on the bar to the right of "Properties" to search or filter the list. You can also sort the list by clicking on a column header. The first click will give you an ascending order, a second will give you a descending order, and a third will remove the sort.

Click anywhere on the property's line to go to the individualized summary page for the property. You can click on any tile for more details. 

Go back to the previous page with the arrow to the left of the property name, or switch to a new property from the drop-down arrow to the right of the property name.

Sensors Page

The sensors page will provide you with a quick summary of the health of the sensors, owned or shared, that your account has access to. You can also add a new sensor.

If you have multiple sensors on your account, type on the bar to the right of "Sensors" to search or filter the list. You can limit the displayed sensors to a specific property by using the drop-down option in the top right.

You can also sort the list by clicking on a column header. The first click will give you an ascending order, a second will give you a descending order, and a third will remove the sort.

Click anywhere on the sensor's line to go to that sensor's details page. From there, you'll be able to nickname the sensor, check its status, or delete the sensor from your account.

Events Page

The Events page will list any events that have happened on your properties in the last month. You can load older events by clicking the bottom at the bottom of the page.

Type on the bar to the right of "Events" to search or filter your displayed list. Use the toggle switches at the top to decide whether to show past events (Ongoing only) and Info events, such as sensor registrations or property sharing. 

Limit the displayed events to a specific property by using the drop-down option in the top right.

You can also sort the list by clicking on a column header. The first click will give you an ascending order, a second will give you a descending order, and a third will remove the sort.

Click on the event to see when and where it took place.

Map

The map will automatically zoom to show all of your properties. Each property's marker will have a status icon to let you know about any issues at a glance.

Hover over the property marker to reveal the nickname and address of the point you're looking at. 

Click on the marker to be taken to the tiled property summary page for a closer look. 
You can click on any tile for more details. 

Go back to the previous page with the arrow to the left of the property name, or switch to a new property from the drop-down arrow to the right of the property name.
