Ivanti Edge Intelligence Configuration panel

In the Ivanti Edge Intelligence Configuration panel you can manage Edge Intelligence elements, such as actions, queries and alerts.

Edge Intelligence Configuration page

To access the panel, go to Insights > Edge Intelligence, and click Settings icon.
You can also click the Manage existing actions in Management link at the top of the Manage Actions panel.

Actions, Queries and Alerts

Apart from the built-in actions, you can configure custom actions to create a tailor-made solution. You can also link additional actions to Edge Intelligence queries or alerts.

You must have a role with Edge Intelligence > Configure permissions to configure and link actions. Configured actions are available to members with Edge Intelligence > Perform Actions permissions.
For more information about Roles and Permissions, see Access Control.

Create a new action

  1. From the Ivanti Edge Intelligence Configuration pane, on the Actions tab, click Add new action.
  2. On the New action page, compose your action from available tasks and (optionally) variables.
  3. Save the action.

Add an action to a query or alert

You can link an action to a query to make it available from the query widget. Link an action to an alert to make it available as an automatic remediation for the real-time event when setting up the alert.

If you save a change to a Quick action (e.g. add it to another query), it is no longer a Quick action. From that moment, the action can only be edited from the Ivanti Edge Intelligence Configuration pane.

  1. On the Ivanti Edge Intelligence Configuration pane, go to the Queries or Alerts tab.
  2. Find the relevant query or alert, click on the vertical dots icon icon at the end of its line, and select Edit.
  3. On the pane that opens, click Add action.
  4. In the pane that opens, select the desired action.
    An overview of Action data and Available placeholders that are used by the action is displayed.
  5. Specify the relevant Action data, if applicable.
  6. Click Add to confirm.

Remove an action from a query or alert

  1. On the Ivanti Edge Intelligence configuration pane, go to the Queries or Alerts tab.
  2. Find the relevant query or alert, click on the vertical dots icon icon at the end of its line, and select Edit.
  3. On the pane that opens, find the action you want to remove.
  4. Click on the vertical dots icon icon and select Remove.
  5. Click OK to confirm.

Sensors

On the Sensors tab of the Ivanti Edge Intelligence configuration pane, you can choose to enable or disable the location sensor of the Edge Intelligence engine of the Ivanti Neurons Agents in your environment. If you disable the location sensor, location data is not collected by Edge Intelligence and is therefore not available to any of your Neurons Platform members.
The location sensor also requires access to https://edgelocation.ivanticloud.com. For more information about URLs and IP addresses used by the Neurons Platform, see Required URLs, IP addresses and ports.

Additionally, you can use Roles and Permissions to manage visibility of location data.
You must have a role with Edge Intelligence > Configure permissions to configure sensors. If the location sensor is enabled, location data is available to members with Edge Intelligence > View Location permissions.
For more information about Roles and Permissions, see Access Control.

When you enable the location sensor, users working on computers running Apple macOS will be prompted to allow use of Location Services by the Neurons Agent. If use of Location Services was already allowed before, the prompt will not appear.

Targeting

Targeting enables you to limit queries to a subset of the endpoints in your environment. Targets are dynamic and are updated when a relevant property of an endpoint (for example its location) changes.

You must have a role with Edge Intelligence > Configure permissions to configure 'predefined' targets. These targets are available to all members with Edge Intelligence > Default Access permissions.
For more information about Roles and Permissions, see Access Control.

Filter

You define a target by configuring a Filter. Filters can have one or more conditions and groups of conditions, which can be combined using And and Or operators.
