Devices

After you've imported information into the Ivanti Neurons Platform or deployed the Ivanti Neurons Agent, the device records appear on the Devices page. Access this page by clicking Devices in the left navigation pane.

Use the device details search box to search the device list for matching text.

Devices view search box

Alternatively, use the global search at the top of the page to search for users or devices, from anywhere in the Neurons Platform.

Use the column set button Column set button at the right-edge of the column header to customize which columns are visible.

To delete a device from the Neurons Platform, select the box next to the device and then click Delete at the top of the view. This removes the record for that device from the Neurons Platform. If the record was imported from another source using a connector, and the device record still exists in the source, the record may be re-imported the next time the connector runs.

Use the enhanced filtering and grouping features to find and organize devices you're managing.

Filters help you find the devices you want to manage. Filters are based on table columns in the device view. Applying a filter to a column limits the device list to devices matching the filter. If you create a filter that has multiple elements, the device list shows only devices matching the filter elements you specified.

Here's a filter that only shows devices with a Cloud agent and that run a version of Windows 10.

Use the groups feature to create groups of devices. Groups help you organize the devices you regularly manage. Quickly switch between groups with the Groups button at the top left of the page.

Button called groups

Groups can be either static or dynamic.

Static groups work well when you know what devices you want in the group and that list of devices doesn't change often.

Dynamic groups work well when you want to show only devices matching your filters. The dynamic group membership is recalculated each time you view the group. Dynamic groups can be created from column filters or search results.

  6. Once you are done adding devices, click OK.
  7. Under visibility, select Private if you want a group only you can see. Select Public if you want everyone to see the group.
