Creating Event Decorations

Event decorations allow creation of global styling that applies to event types. These decorations impact how events appear across several Workstation widgets, including:

• Collections
• Link Analysis
• The Interactive Map

Event decorations are created in the Workstation Settings page, within the Data Ingestion tab.

To create event decorations:

1. From the top of the Workstation homepage, click the Settings icon.

2. In the left side drawer of the Settings page, click Data Ingestion. A list of event types appear.

   note

   If no events appear, active filters applied to the Event Decorations table may be filtering them.

3. To the right of an event, click the More menu (⋮) and select Change Icon/Color/Title to open a modal popup containing three values to be altered as part of the event's decoration. Refer to the following table for a description of each field:

Field	Description
Primary Title	Pick one or multiple fields from the event type to use as the event's primary title. Multiple fields will be concatenated.
Color	Visualize representations of the event type with a specific color.
Icon/Image	Visualize representations of the event type with a specific icon or image. Icons will appear in Link Analysis, in the Map widget, and on events attached to collections

note

Changes to any field affect the following:

• Events attached to collections
• Link Analysis nodes
• Popups from map widget markers

Primary Title also affects Attached Events on collection PDF exports.

Event types that do not utilize event decorations default to a white/gray color, a generic icon, and the Core ID or event type name as the primary title.
