Add Shared Views

Feature Summary

Shared Views let users create customized views of the GSatTrack platform — maps, reports, dashboards, or specific data sets — and share them with other authorized users. This keeps all stakeholders working from the same information and supports real-time collaboration and decision-making.

How to Use

How-To: Add Shared Views

  1. Go to Navigation menu and click on “Add Item”
  2. Click on “Add Shared View”
  3. Follow the prompts to fill out both required and optional fields
  4. Click on “Create Shared View” button
  5. Share the newly created “Shared View” via email, social media platforms, or with a private link with desired stakeholders

A shared view shows its items’ attributes. When the items you choose include one with a Link attribute (such as a camera address), the Sharing step says so: the view’s visitors can see and open those links.

How-To: Edit Shared Views

  1. Go to Navigation menu and click on “Shared Views” icon
  2. Click on the “Options” icon next to the desired “Shared View”
  3. Choose the desired section to edit and make the desired changes
  4. Click on the “Save Changes” button

Editing a shared view, turning it on and sending its invitations need permission to edit shared views. You can always turn off a shared view of your own, which stops it showing to anyone with the link.

How-To: Delete Shared Views

  1. Go to Navigation menu and click on “Shared Views” icon
  2. Click on the “Options” icon next to the desired “Shared View”
  3. Click on the “Delete Shared View” button
  4. Click the “Delete” button on the pop-up window

Additional Information

Key Features

  • Custom View Creation — select and configure the specific data, maps, or reports to include in a view.
  • Access Control — administrators control which users can view and interact with each shared view.
  • Creator's Access — a shared view never shows more than the user who created it can see. “All” on a view made by a user with limited access means everything that user can see, and the view follows their access as it changes.
  • Real-time Updates — views update in real-time so stakeholders always see the latest data, no manual refresh.
  • Historical Data Sharing — some views include historical data for insight into past events and trends.

Use Cases

  • Fleet Management — share fleet reports and maps with teams to coordinate and optimize operations.
  • Emergency Response — coordinate efforts, track assets, and share real-time information during incidents.
