Action buttons for dashboards and perspectives

About action buttons

Action buttons are customized buttons that you can add at the top of a dashboard or perspective.

You can choose between different types of actions:

• Open an internal link
  An internal link within your SquaredUp DS instance. For example, when you want to link from an object's perspective to a dashboard that is relevant for that object.Internal links use only the part of the URL that comes after .../SquaredUpv[version number]/. For example, if the full URL to a dashboard is https://mysquaredup.com/SquaredUp/page/dashboard-enterprise-applications, you need to use /page/dashboard-enterprise-applications.
• Open a web link
  A link to any URL. For example, when you have a dashboard for monitoring a website or application, you can add a link to that website or application. Web links have to include the http:// or https:// prefix. These links will open in a new tab by default.
• Execute a SCOM task
  You can run a SCOM task on an object.

  Which tasks are available depends on the object and the management packs that are installed. Only users with the correct SCOM access will be able to run the task (see How do SCOM roles affect what users can do in SquaredUp DS?).
