Go Up to ER Object Pages

Alerts.png

The Alerts subpage of security properties and attachments lets social users configure conditions that raise alerts about sensitive data. If an alert condition matches an ER object, Embarcadero Connect displays on the header of the page of an ER object the alert message and icon defined in the alert condition.

This page provides an action on top, Add New Condition. You can click this action to add a new alert condition entry to the page.

Super users can edit and delete any alert condition, however authenticated users can only edit and delete those alert conditions that they create.

Alert Condition Entries

Each alert condition entry in the page provides the following fields:

Item Description

Show Alert for Matching

Here you can define the condition that should result in showing the target alert on any matching ER object. You may choose any of the following values:

  • Bound Object. Show the target alert for any object bound to the current security property or attachment.
  • Value. Show the target alert for any object bound to the current security property or attachment where the security property or attachment has the specified value. You can specify the target value on the text input field on the right-hand side of Value.

Alert Level

The level of the alert, which determines which icons Embarcadero Connect displays along with the defined Notification Text. You may choose any of the following values:

The following image shows the header of an ER object with one alert of each type and a Notification Text equal to the name of the chosen Alert Level.
