6.4 Event Detail

Clicking an event name — in either the global events view or an element's Events tab — opens the event detail page. The top of the page is the General Information area, which shows all standard event fields and provides an action toolbar; the bottom is a row of five tabs: Attributes, Associated Attributes, Annotations, Notification Record, and Child Events.

6.4.1 General Information

The General Information area displays all standard event fields and provides entry points for acknowledgment, adding to groups, root cause analysis, and analysis chart operations.

6.4.1.1 Toolbar

The General Information toolbar provides the following action controls.

ControlDescription
Back to ListReturn to the events list
AckAcknowledge the event
Add to GroupAdd this event to one or more custom groups for quick access from the left sidebar
Root Cause AnalysisOpen a root cause analysis view for this event
Analysis ChartAdd to Analysis Chart for the event's time range on its associated element
ResendManually resend a notification for this event to its configured contact points

6.4.1.2 Fields

The General Information area shows the following standard event fields, covering the event's time, associated objects, trigger context, and status.

FieldDescription
NameEvent name, generated from the naming pattern of the event template; a child event's name appends the trigger name suffix to the parent event name
TemplateThe event template used to create this event
Severity LevelThe severity category
Reason CodeThe reason code, if set
CategoriesCategory tags
DescriptionFree-text description
Operating ReasonThe specific reason that triggered this event — for an ordinary event, the analysis condition that fired; for a child event, the trigger rule that matched and its expression
Current ValueThe value of the attribute that satisfied the trigger condition at the moment the event fired
Start TimeWhen the event began
End TimeWhen the event ended (blank if still active)
Associated ElementThe element involved in the analysis that triggered this event — click to navigate.
Associated AnalysisThe analysis rule that generated this event — click to navigate to it
Parent EventFor a child event, the parent event it belongs to — click to navigate; blank for ordinary events
StatusAcknowledgment status (Unacknowledged / Acknowledged)
Acknowledged ByThe user and time of acknowledgment (if any)

6.4.2 Bottom Tabs

Below the General Information area, five tabs provide access to extended event information — event attributes, associated attributes, operational annotations, notification delivery history, and the list of child events.

6.4.2.1 Attributes

The Attributes tab shows the named values that the analysis captured onto the event record when it created the event — that is, the entries in the stream computation window's output configuration that are designated to be written to event attributes. They are defined by the event template and populated by the analysis that triggered the event. Typical uses include recording key data at the time of the event, such as the peak temperature during an exceedance or the batch ID at the time of a fault.

ColumnDescription
NameAttribute name, as defined in the event template
ValueThe value recorded at event creation time
Value TypeThe data type of the value

Attribute values are read-only — they are set when the event is created and cannot be modified afterward. The toolbar supports filtering by category, refreshing, and selecting visible columns.

6.4.2.2 Associated Attributes

The Associated Attributes tab shows the element attributes related to the analysis window, along with the entries in the window's calculation output configuration that are designated to be written to element attributes — that is, the aggregated calculation results that the analysis writes back to the associated element's attribute list at the same time the event is produced.

Event attributes and calculation output attributes come from the same window output configuration, differing only in their write target:

  • Event attributes are stored with the event and are visible only on the event record.
  • Associated attributes enter the element's time-series data and are available to downstream consumers such as dashboards and analysis charts.

In the Associated Attributes tab of the event detail page, each entry shows the attribute name, the recorded value, and the value type — making it convenient to view both the "event-side record" and the "time-series record" of the calculation output in one place.

6.4.2.3 Annotations

The Annotations tab lets operators add text annotations related to the event — for example, investigation findings or corrective actions taken. See Annotations for details.

6.4.2.4 Notification Record

The Notification Record shows a complete log of all notifications sent for this event. Each entry shows the contact point name, the delivery timestamp, and the delivery status.

6.4.2.5 Child Events

Visible only on a parent event — lists all child events under this parent, with the same columns as the Browsing Events list; click any row to navigate to the corresponding child event's detail page. For the rules of parent/child event production, naming, and time ranges, see 6.2 Child Events.
