Workflows - Compliances

Overview

These type of Workflows are useful to set alerts on device vitals and metrics and then associate actions when the particular compliance is hit. The actions can be set to send emails or to alert the user to take an action. In this section we will see the Workflows of type Compliance Tasks available and how they work.

The Workflows of type Compliance tasks follow certain rules that apply to all of them. These are,

1. These Workflows can be created at a Platform/OS level or at a Global level.
2. When these Workflows are created at a Platform/OS level, these can be set on Device Groups.
3. When these Workflows are created at a Global level, these work on all the devices in the inventory. There can be only one Global Workflows that can be created for each type except for Geofence Workflows.
4. These Workflows are based on the Dashboard timezone or the timezone that you select. That is they trigger when the set time is reached based on the selected timezone.
5. These Workflows are based on the periodic synchronization of information from devices and hence require the devices to be online.

Set a Battery Compliance

1. What does it Do: This allows you to create a compliance based on battery level for all of the devices in inventory or to the devices in a group. You can have the information emailed to the selected Email settings. Additionally choose an action to warn/alert the user via a Broadcast message.
2. Supported Platforms:

   

3. Prerequisites:
   1. For Platform/OS level compliance, needs at least one Device Group with the devices of the platform/os added to the group.
   2. For Global level compliance, no device groups are required.
4. How to Create:
   1. Navigate to Reports & Workflows > Workflows
      1. To create a platform level compliance, click CREATE FLOW > OS/Platform > Battery Compliance
