Thing List

This widget prints out the paginated list of things visible by the user and for the current context.

Items can be searched and sorted depending on the properties.

Metrics are computed for the current page only, so it is not possible to sort nor search by their values.

Thing List

By enabling the "Bulk Controls", the widget allows selecting multiple thing and perform bulk operations, including:

  • Manage Tags: select/deselect and edit tags.

  • Execute Command: for each identified thing-definition, select a command with bulk support to execute.

  • Update Firmware: select a firmware and apply it to the selected thing.

When placed in a Location details template, and the Actions Enabled flag is selected the widget allows, according to user permissions, to create new things in that location.

Below you can find some examples of how to use the component within a template.
