Header Functions

The function buttons in the top right corner of FlexMAM allow you to access the Notification Center, switch between Dalet apps, add UDOs or upload assets, and view or edit your profile information.

Viewing your Notifications

You can access your Notifications by clicking the bell icon at the top right. The Notification Center centralizes all important notifications, providing high level information about current workflows and allows quick navigation from any notification to the Operations Dashboard. You will receive notifications when a workflow begins to run, has failed, has been cancelled, or has been completed.

To view workflow notifications:

  1. New or unread notifications are indicated by an orange circle icon overlay on the top right corner of the notifications button .
  2. Click the it to open the Notifications panel.
  3. Tick the My Workflows checkbox to only receive notifications about your own workflows.
  4. Clear the notification panel by clicking CLEAR ALL.

To manage failed workflows:

  • Expand the notification card by clicking to view the progress of each stage of your workflow. If your workflow has failed, you will be able to see where it happened.

  • You can hover over a failed workflow to view some details, such as workflow ID, owner, start date, and error. For further details, click the workflow to go to the Operations Dashboard.

  • If more than five workflows have failed over the last week you will see a summary card. Click the Investigate button to go to Operations Dashboard.

  • When you log in to FlexMAM, you can only view notifications about failed workflows that are less than a week old.

  • Notifications concerning failed workflows received while you are logged in will remain in the notification center for a week, while those regarding completed or cancelled workflows only remain for an hour.

To view task notifications

When there is a new task, an icon overlay will appear over the bell icon, similar to workflow notifications indicating a there is a new task. When there are new tasks in the pool, you can manage them within FlexMAM. You can learn more about tasks here.

Once you have opened the notification panel, you can toggle between tasks and workflows. Clicking the task panel will show you a list of tasks, in order of creation date and time. Tasks are sorted into two categories Available Tasks and My Tasks. New tasks will be indicated by a NEW label. Here you can perform the following actions by hovering over a task:

  • Start task: Starts the task and assign it to you. This means that the task will disappear from the Available tasks menu and appear in My tasks.
  • Take: Claim a task without starting it. This moves the task from the Available tasks menu to My tasks without starting it.

Once you click Start Task, it will open a window that allows you to Do this task. In this window you can fill out the metadata form and make any edits you wish. From here you can perform the following actions:

  • Return task: Returns the tasks to the Available task pool
  • Pause task: Pauses the task. This task will stay in your task pool and you can Resume it at any time.
  • Finish task: Completes the task. Once you finish the task it will disappear from your task pool.

If you navigate away from the notifications panel or log out, FlexMAM will remember where you last left off, and will stay toggled to Available Tasks or My Tasks next time you access your tasks.
