Automation
This article describes all settings in the “Automation” tab within the user group configuration. Here you define which automation functions members of this user group are allowed to view and manage.
Event Profiles
An event profile controls the arming and disarming of various alarm groups at a specific time. Event profiles are managed in a tabular view, where they can be edited and new profiles can be created.
Manage Event Profiles
Allows the management of event profiles: creating, editing, enabling/disabling, and deleting. Without this permission, event profiles are read-only or not visible.
Event profiles have a system-wide effect. Changes can directly influence processes and notifications. Therefore, work with test/draft profiles and document changes.
Exception Day Profiles
Exception day profiles define days when regular time profiles are suspended or replaced (e.g., holidays, company closures).
Manage Exception Day Profiles
Grants permission to create and maintain exception day profiles as well as assign them to time or access profiles.
Use exception day profiles to avoid maintaining separate time profiles for holidays. Centralize annual holidays and assign them to multiple profiles.
Webhooks
Webhooks send HTTP requests to external systems when defined events occur (e.g., alarm, state change, access).
Manage Webhooks
Allows creating, editing, testing, and deleting webhooks. Users with this permission can define target URLs, headers, authentication, and payload.
Pay attention to access protection and data minimization when using webhooks. Only store necessary data and use HTTPS along with authentication (e.g., tokens).
Signaling
Signaling profiles enable the configuration and management of combinations between events and signaling types. This determines the behavior of the siren in a specific alarm situation.
Manage Signaling Profiles
Allows creating and editing signaling profiles, which define how specific devices in the system signal events like alarms.
