Why is there no filter in Import from LM Repository?
Hello, why is there no way to filter out the Datasource Repository items so i can find what i'm looking for easier?

I have to scroll thru 100's of DS's and hopefully find what I need. Each column should have a filter at the top so we can shorten this list.
Can you add this please...

OP6 years agoIt's the one you sent above:
https://www.logicmonitor.com/support/logicmodules/about-logicmodules/keeping-your-datasources-up-to-date/
in this picture it shows a "show diff"

but when you in the actual "Import Dialog" it just has 3 status "New"and "Updated - in use / not in use"
You have to actually click on the "Updated - xxxx" status and it then pops up the diff window.

OP6 years agonice thank you... Just FYI that LM Doc page on the Repository shows a "Show Diff" but that isn't listed when you do an import. Is that an 2.0 thing? To show the diff you have to click on the Status column entry to see the diff page.

·6 years agoThat's exactly what it means. See here: https://www.logicmonitor.com/support/logicmodules/about-logicmodules/keeping-your-datasources-up-to-date/
From what I've seen of the new Exchange, this will feel a lot less like this:

OP6 years agoStu, can you clarify one thing about the repository. What does each of the different status' mean and when you do a "Import from LogicMonitor Repository" does it list just "New or Updated" DataSources that are in our local repo and not ones that exist but have not updates?
Do each of these mean:
"New" - A new DS that doesn't exist in our local Repository
"Updated - in use" - An Updated version of an existing DS that we are currently using in our repo
"Updated - not in use" - An updated version of an existing DS that exists in our repo that is not in use
