Native Integration: Area Sync

 

Once you have saved your Sync Configuration (described above) you can then add the individual Area Syncs to synchronise Notification Templates (Titan Broadcast Presets) and Notification Users (Titan People, Roles and Lists), against individual Areas in SureView.

Important: It's recommended that you first create a dedicated "Titan" area to synchronise into, this helps keeps the items organised

  1. Go to the  Sureview "Syncs" tab (when adding or editing your Sync System)
  2. Click Add Area Sync
  3. Complete the Area Sync Fields

     

Title The friendly name for the individual Area Sync
Area Which Sureview Area should the sync use. 

It's highly recommended to sync into a dedicated "Titan" area
Identifier

Leaving the identifier blank will cause sync to bring in all Titan Broadcast Presets. 

Note: All Titan People, Roles and Lists will be synced in as "Users" in sureview. These are not true logins and have no impact on your user license. 

If you only want to synchronise specific Notification Templates (Broadcast Filter) then enter a identifier. 

You can use * wildcards to sync in all broadcast filters with a name that matches e.g.

TemplateFilter=*Evacuate*;

would match the Titan Broadcast Filters

Fire Evacuate
Evacuate Emergency

 

Interval How often should the system sync into SureView?
default: 24 hours
Enabled Enable or Disable the automatic Sync
default on
Allow Update Area Allows the sync to automatically move items  to a different area
Default off
recommended to keep off
 
Allow update Device Settings Allows the sync to automatically update the item settings
Default off
recommended to keep off


Triggering Notifications

Once the Titan has been synced into Sureview an action plan with a "Mass Notification" step will need to be created.

Operators will use the Mass Notification action step to send Mass Notifications when needed.,

Please see the following support pages for more details

Setup: Action Plans

and 

Operations: Action Plans

Note: Titan only allows notifications to be sent to registered Titan "users" (people, roles and lists) or via Titan Broadcast Presets (Notification Templates).  Selecting anything else in the Mass Notification Action Plan Recipient will cause the notification to be rejected.

 

Notification Templates

Notification Templates (Titan Broadcasts Presets) should ONLY be created and edited from within Titan HST itself and then synced into Sureview .

Titan HST Notification Templates must not be edited with the Sureview Notification Templates setup page as this will invalidate the link between the sureview notification template and the Titan Broadcast Presets
