Overview 

The new MiOS notification framework enables the automatic creation of alerts or notifications based on predefined event templates associated with all kinds of smart devices. The automatic creation of such automations has been enabled during the inclusion or onboarding of supported devices or services to the MiOS system, which ensures the existence of customized alerts without any user input.

With every device addition to the system, the corresponding supported automatic notification Meshbots are deployed on the cloud side for each one of the capabilities displayed by the device that is also included in the default event categories within the new notification framework. See event categories.

Event categories and device types 

The currently supported event categories for the templating system in the new MiOS notification framework are listed below. These event categories and items are automatically associated with a cloud-based notification meshbot template after the device is included in the system, enabling automatic notifications/alerts whenever any of the events are recorded.

How To's 

Below we discuss basic system notification meshbot management for regular users from the end-user portal ezlogic.mios.com. Users will be able to view, organize, filter, and delete automatically generated system notifications meshbots as desired and according to their needs.

Manage system notification Meshbots (regular users) 

System notification meshbots that are automatically created and activated upon the addition of any of the devices listed above are hidden by default. These notifications meshbots can only be deleted and they are enabled in order to prevent any important event from going unnoticed, however, they can be edited and tailored to the user’s needs by giving them the ability to edit the notification’s content to suit their needs or even place system variables of interest by adding useful placeholders within the body of the notification.

View System Notification Meshbots 

• Log into the Ezlogic end-user portal

• On the left-hand menu, click on Automation > Meshbots to visualize all meshbots

• Click on the gear icon on the top right corner and toggle Display system meshbots to show all automatically created system meshbots

• Depending on the number of devices in the system you will be able to navigate through all system meshbots by page-clicking on the navigation arrows on top of the meshbots list

Delete System Notifications Meshbots 

• You can delete any system notification meshbot by clicking on the trash can icon and confirming your action by clicking Delete

FAQ's 

• Can regular users still define and customize their own notifications?

Yes, users will still be able to create and deploy their custom notification meshbots based on any trigger event of their choice as a Local or Cloud Notification or Automation Meshbot. For more information on creating custom notifications go to C: Notification
