5. View edge status - Edge Finder#
Edge Finder v2.6.0
5.1. View the list of edges#
Use the Edge Finder to see if an edge is online or to see real-time data being transmitted from the edge to the intdash server.
Open Edge Finder ( <base_URL>/edges/ ). If you already have an intdash application open, you can also go to the Edge Finder with the 
button at the top right of the screen.
The edge list can be reordered and filtered. See View the list of edges for more information.
Note
When you send data using the iOS application intdash Motion, an edge account with the same name as your user name (or in some cases "<username>_edge") is automatically created and the data is sent using that edge account.
The items displayed in the edge list screen are as follows.
