System Settings

Configure Global System Settings including how the application will log errors and handle Platform Events.

Error Handling

From the Global Settings page, scroll to the section labeled “System Settings”, to control how the background jobs will handle any unexpected errors. There are currently two settings available:

  1. Log Thing Errors to Chatter
  2. Log Servitization Errors to Chatter
Error Handling

Error Handling

These settings, when enabled, will log any errors from background jobs to the Chatter Feed of the appropriate record. For Thing Errors they will be attached to the Asset, or your custom Thing Object if configured. For Servitization Errors they will be attached to the Servitization Plan.

Alternatively, if either these fields are NOT enabled the default behavior is to create “IoT Admin Log” records. This Custom Object can easily be accessed with Reports or as an Object Tab with List Views.

Platform Event Handling

From the Global Settings page, scroll to the section labeled “System Settings”, to control how the Platform Events received from the IoT Cloud will be handled.
