Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Activity UI used for?
The Activity UI provides a centralized view of all system operations and events across your infrastructure. Use it to monitor real-time activity, investigate failures, review audit trails, and verify that expected operations completed successfully.
Why are some activities missing from the list?
Activities might not appear in the list for the following reasons:
- Active filters are excluding them. Clear all filters to see the full list.
- The activity occurred outside the selected date range. Expand the date range filter.
- You do not have permission to view activities. Contact your administrator.
Troubleshooting
Activity list is empty
- Check whether any filters are active. Clear all filters or remove individual filter tags.
- Verify the selected date range includes the time period you expect.
- Confirm you have the necessary permissions to view activities. Contact your administrator if you are unsure.
- Refresh the page. A transient network issue may have prevented data from loading.
Activities are not updating in real time
- Manually refresh the page or click the refresh button.
- Check your network connection and verify you can reach the platform.
- Clear your browser cache and reload the page.
Filters do not return expected results
- Verify that the filter value matches the exact format expected (for example, date formats or status names).
- Use OpsQL search for more precise querying.
- Check whether multiple active filters are combined with AND logic, which can narrow results unexpectedly. Remove filters one at a time to isolate the issue.
- Confirm that the activity type or entity you are filtering on exists within the selected date range.
