Adding nodes en masse to a report

Hi Kkillens,

What report are you working on specifically ?

I am working on a detailed view/report of nodes, and interfaces.  We have hundreds of nodes and obviously more interfaces and I need many things to include errors, utilization, spikes etc.  Does that help?

Thank you for your reply!

I would recommend implementing custom properties, once complete you would only need to include one condition. The one condition would encompass the elements desired, are you familiar with custom properties ?

Unfortunately I am not familiar with custom properties.  Is there a link or quick tip you could send?  Greatly appreciate your help!

You can have a Look on the "All Settings"-Page  and "Custom Properties" it is pretty self explanatory.

Custom properties are like Tags you can add to certain entities in Orion.

Custom Properties are the first thing I discuss with my customers. I usually end up with more than 20 CPs. I often use the API to fill those sometimes just Alerts to fill them

I have created a custom property but when I create the report I can't just add the custom property.  I have to select the custom property and then it requires me to select each individual interface 1 by 1.  Is there a way to add all my interfaces at once?

Here's a good doc: Create a custom property

More information within the doc: Change custom properties values

Once you've created the custom property you can add multiple interfaces at once.

Navigate to admin settings

     Select Manage Custom Properties

     Select your property and select 'View Edit Values'

     Identify your interfaces by key words using the search bar, or by the group by function on the right of the screen.

I have been able to get to that point but when I create a report it only allows me to select the custom property and then I have to drill down and add one node at time.
