Hello. In this video you will learn how to customize existing dashboards and visualizations or create new ones in ACDI.
Let's customize one of existing dashboards, for instance, the NetIQ Audit Dashboard.
...
Here you can see visualization placed on canvas and at the bottom there is a search.
...
Let’s enable editing and then click on the gear symbol in the top right corner of each visualization you want to customize.
...
Let’s assume you want to see only user changes in this visualization. Click “Edit visualization.” Now you are in the visualization editor.
...

On your right side you see the settings for this visualization that can be changed—buckets, metrics, and other settings.
...
More information about changes, visualizations, and search settings can be found on Opensearch, on the “Documentation” page. Back to ACDI.

For example, you want to add an additional filter to see the changes for only the object class “User.”
Please remember that the search is strictly case sensitive. You can use “object class.keyword” or search by an object class attribute.
...
Here you need to select “Operator.”
...
In this case, the object class is “User.” Let’s save the settings.
...
In front of you now is the live chart displaying changes for a user. There are also “Event: True” and “connected system.” What is “Event: True?”
...

Each event that comes to ACDI is processed either by the ACDI driver if it's eDirectory or by ACDI Event Service if it’s Active Directory. So, then ACDI receives an event, for instance “Add,” and you can see that one event contains multiple attributes inside it.
...
When a user is created, you’ll need to define the given name, CN, and surname as it's mandatory. However, you are able to also add an additional information about this user
...
That's why in an event that has “Event: true,” the main object of event contains the event doc (an XML which contains full information about the event).
...
You get one object with “Event: true” and as many objects with “Event: false” as there are attributes you have in an event.
...
To perform event calculations, you need to use filter “Event: true.” However, if you need to get the name of an attribute and its values, “Event: false” must be used.
...
The filter “Connected system: Audit” — what does this mean?
...
For eDirectory, ACDI provides two types of monitoring packages. First and foremost is the ACDI Driver. It gives you information about changes of objects in the eDirectory according to the filter you have set up in driver. The second option is the third-party driver monitors.
...
When you configure a driver monitor, you must define a unique name for the connected system that you will later use to create visualizations and reports for those monitors. By default there are dashboards for the main driver, which are NetIQ, NetIQ Audit Dashboard, and also a dashboard for driver monitors.
...
Here you see that in the NetIQ Driver Dashboard there is data with the connected system “Active Directory1” and HR.
...
This is the data received from the monitor packages in Active Directory and the loopback driver named “HR.” Let's go back to customizations and repeat the settings actions done previously.
...
OK, you want to use the customized visualization in your new dashboard. Click “Save as”
...
Use the switcher to enable “Save as new visualization” and customize its name.
...
There is no need to add this visualization to default dashboard, so here you need to disable the feature. Save the settings. Now you are all set to create a new dashboard.
