Clear New Flag when Editing Client Details

[kobayashimaru1701]

It would be nice if there were a toggle option to clear the New flag when editing a client. In other words, when clicking into the client's Detail page the New flag should be un-checked.

I know there is a time setting for this but I'd personally rather have the flag clear based on this event so it doesn't fly under my radar. It would also be nice if hitting Save returned you to the client list.

I'm really liking this app though. My router's client list handling is astrocious so this is exactly what I've been wanting, thank you!

Hi,

There will be new Source Fields available in the next version, and although this doesn't cover all scenarios you should get a good coverage with a workflow like this:

{
  "name": "Unmark New When Edited",
  "trigger": {
    "object_type": "Devices",
    "event_type": "update"
  },
  "conditions": [
    {
      "logic": "AND",
      "conditions": [
        {
          "field": "devNameSource",
          "operator": "equals",
          "value": "USER"
        },
        {
          "field": "devVlanSource",
          "operator": "equals",
          "value": "USER"
        }
      ]
    }
  ],
  "actions": [
    {
      "type": "update_field",
      "field": "devIsNew",
      "value": "0"
    }
  ]
}

See these docs for details:

• https://docs.netalertx.com/WORKFLOWS/?h=workf
• https://docs.netalertx.com/DEVICE_FIELD_LOCK/?h=lock

You can already test this if you want to. You can switch to the netalertx-dev docker image (backup everything at first or, ideally, spin up a separate container with a separate db and config as DB modifications can happen).

Disclaimer:
Running on the dev container long term might lead to data loss as upgrade path is not guaranteed.

Make sure you refresh your browser cache - and click the 🔄 refresh button in the top right corner.
