Mesh

This module is not available in the current version. It will be available in a future version. Use this page for reference only.

Mesh defines mesh signal tags for each client type. Each tag has a low threshold, a high threshold, and a display order.

Changes can affect device behavior and connectivity in production. Work in small steps and follow the safety flow: export, dry-run, import.

Where to find parameter descriptions: Open the create or edit dialog. The Tag name, Display order, Low level, and High level fields have a hint under the input.

When to use it

Use Mesh to do the following:

  • Review existing entries.

  • Search for an entry.

  • Export a snapshot as a backup before changes.

  • Import many changes from a prepared file. Dry-run is required.

  • Change single entries, if you have permission.

  • Check the result after an import or a change.

Before you start

  1. Open Angular Console → Mesh.

  2. If your deployment asks for it, select a Client type.

  3. Check the context: environment, breadcrumbs, and client type if shown.

  4. Check your role.

Roles for this module:

  • VIEWER: browse and export.

  • EDITOR or ADMIN: change entries and import.

If a requirement is missing, the module can show an empty state and disable write actions.

Find an entry

  1. Open Mesh.

  2. If the page has filters or search, use them to narrow the list.

  3. Open an entry to read its details.

Expected result:

  • You see a list of entries.

  • You see a details view with the entry fields.

  • VIEWER accounts see a read-only view.

Export a snapshot

  1. Open Mesh.

  2. Click Export, or the similar snapshot action.

  3. Save the downloaded file as your backup.

For details, see Export a Snapshot.

Import with dry-run

Import is the safest way to apply many changes at once. Always follow this order: export, dry-run, apply.

  1. Export a snapshot first: Export a Snapshot.

  2. Click Import, or the similar import action.

  3. If the page shows an import mode, select MERGE or REPLACE.

  4. Upload the prepared file.

  5. Wait for the dry-run result.

  6. Read the plan (created, updated, deleted) and all warnings and errors.

  7. Confirm the import only if the plan matches your intent.

Import safety checklist

  1. Check the environment name.

  2. Check the selected client type. It must match the file.

  3. Export a snapshot before you change data.

  4. Run Dry-run and review:

    • the errors: you must fix them,

    • the warnings: you must understand them,

    • the create, update, and delete counts.

  5. If you use REPLACE, review the deletions in the dry-run plan. Continue only if you accept them.

  6. Apply the import.

  7. Refresh the page and open the changed entries to check them.

If REPLACE is available, it can delete entries missing from the imported file. If the plan shows many deletions, stop. Check if the file is complete and the context is correct.

Change an entry

Required role: EDITOR or ADMIN.

  1. Open the entry.

  2. Click Edit.

  3. Change the fields.

  4. Click Save.

  5. Refresh the page and open the entry again.

Expected result: the entry shows the saved values.

Export a snapshot before large manual changes. You can then compare the result and restore the old state.

Check the result

After a change or an import, do these steps:

  1. Check if you are in the correct environment.

  2. Check the selected Client type, if shown.

  3. Click Refresh, or open the module again.

  4. Open the changed entries and check the values.

  5. Check a few unchanged entries. They must stay the same.

  6. After an import, compare the dry-run plan with the real change.

  7. Optional: export a new snapshot for audit. See Export a Snapshot.

Troubleshooting

The page shows no data

A requirement can be missing, for example the client type. Check the requirements and clear narrow filters or search text.

You cannot change or import

You are probably signed in as VIEWER. Only EDITOR and ADMIN can change entries and import.

Dry-run shows errors

The file can have a wrong structure. Start from an exported snapshot, make your changes, and run the dry-run again.

Dry-run shows many deletions

You can be using REPLACE, or the file is not complete for the current context. Check the selected context and create the file again from an exported snapshot.

Save is disabled or blocked

The form shows validation errors. Fix the errors and save again.
