Introduction to the Management Portal

The Management Portal is the browser-based user interface that is part of Device Cloud.

Using the Management Portal, you can view and manage all of your things that are connected to Device Cloud. In addition, the Management Portal enables you to manage users, user permissions, and automated responses to events.

The Management Portal enables you to perform system administration tasks, including the following:

• user management

• user and application permission management

• dashboard management to provide custom views of data and things

• platform configuration

• usage monitoring to track access by users and applications

The Management Portal includes developer tools to enable you to do the following:

• create applications and thing definitions to enable device and cloud applications to connect to Device Cloud

• create cloud triggers to respond to real-time events

• monitor thing-related events and API calls

• create campaigns to perform, schedule, and monitor actions on groups of applications

• create a virtual perimeter around mobile, location-aware things
