Save and share your content

When you save your content you can also specify sharing settings and link your content to a specific asset.

1. After you create your content, click Save.

2. Enter a name for your content.

3. Choose who the content is visible to. Keep it private or share with or other users in the solution. If shared, other users can see your content and use it in their own dashboards.

4. Link the content to a specific asset. A link to the content is added to the Associated Content card on the asset page.

Saved content includes all data tags and related settings, such as content type and properties. Values are not saved with content, as time aggregation in content is relative to current date and time.

Link content to a specific asset

For an asset to appear in the Link to asset list, it must be linked directly, or indirectly through its child assets, to all of the tags included in your content. If no assets meet this condition, the list selection defaults to the solution root.

For example, consider the following DeviceA and DeviceB assets and their tag assignments:

• /Houston/Houston Plant/Area1/DeviceA

  This asset has the following tags:

  • Tag1

  • Tag2

• /Houston/Houston Plant/Area1/DeviceB

  This asset has the following tags:

  • Tag3

  • Tag4

If the tags included in your content are Tag1 and Tag2, then the following assets will appear in the list:

/Houston

/Houston/Houston Plant

/Houston/Houston Plant/Area1

/Houston/Houston Plant/Area1/DeviceA

DeviceB won't appear in the list because neither of its tags are included in your content.

If the tags included in your content are all four of the device tags, then the following assets will appear in the list:

/Houston

/Houston/Houston Plant

/Houston/Houston Plant/Area1

DeviceA and DeviceB won’t appear in this list because neither of them are linked to the other device's tags, either directly or indirectly.
