Device Score
The overall performance of a device is summarized by its device Score. Use the score as an at-a-glance indication of device performance.
Hover over the device score to see the metrics contributing to the overall score.
View online or offline devices
The Online column shows the time since devices last communicated to your tenant.
If a device has recently communicated, it is classified as Online and shows an up arrow with the time since the last agent communication. For example, the following device is online and the agent has communicated in the previous minute.
If a device has not communicated to your tenant within the last hour, it is classified as Offline and shows a down arrow with the time since the last agent communication. For example, the following device hasn't communicated in 86 days.
You can change the time format to show the exact time that the device last communication by selecting the toggle next to the Online column.
To filter the grid to show only online or offline devices, use the dropdown filter in the column header.

Filter and sort devices
If you have organized your devices with device groups and tags, these are a convenient way to can filter the list using the Device Group or Device Tag column using the methods described below. This is useful if you want to quickly see data or perform an action on all devices in a certain group or with a certain tag. To learn more about device groups and tags, and what they can be used for, visit Organize Devices with Groups and Tags.
When you sort or filter a column with a chart or score, such as the CPU Usage Timeline or Score columns, all offline devices are hidden.
You can filter the list of devices based on:
- Displayed columns
- Any column (displayed or nondisplayed) using the global filter selector
Filter a displayed column
Find the column that you want to use as a filter. If there is a filter selector under the column name, then you can add filters for that column. For example, you can filter by the OS or Remote IP Address columns.
Apply a filter to the column. You can either:
- Enter text in the filter box to show results containing the string you entered.
- Select an item from the filter dropdown.
- Click the filter icon for more filtering options, or to add multiple filter conditions with AND/OR logic.
- Paste a list of values separated by a new line into a text column filter to show all devices matching one of the values. For example, this can be useful if you receive a list of device names and want to perform an action on all of the devices. Note that this method is recommended only up to a few dozen devices. If you have to filter many devices (hundreds or thousands), then you should use other filtering methods, or use the API to perform the action on the list of devices.
Filter a displayed or nondisplayed column
Click Add filters at the top-left of the page to add global filters to the device list.
Add one or more filter conditions based on the column you select. Note that you can select a column to filter even if that column is not currently displayed in your current grid preset.
Click Apply Filters.
Sort a column
To sort the list of devices based on a column, click the name of a column in the table header.
Clear all filters/sorters
Click the Remove filters/sorters button at the top-right of the page to remove all filters and sorters.
