Where can we find the catalog package descriptions or images?

Using https://catalog.dataminer.services/ we can see that there are numerous packages and dashboards available, however, there is no descriptions, directions or images explaining what the packages do or how to use them or how they look (when dashboard or display included).

Where can a user go to get directions, descriptions and sample displays of the different packages available?

Does a single repository exist which customers have access to which explains the catalog packages in a way they can easily deploy and use the ones which they determine to be worth trying?

Hi Steve,

The cloud team is working diligently to bring relevant information associated with packages directly to the Catalog.

However, at the current moment, this information could be found in multiple places.

DataMiner Docs: [DataMiner Standard Apps, Frameworks & Solutions | DataMiner Docs]

DataMiner Use Cases: [USE CASES - DataMiner Dojo]

DataMiner Solutions: [Solutions - DataMiner Dojo]

Depending on what you're looking for, I'd try doing a search in the various sites provided above.

As mentioned, stay in the lookout for the information to be centralized in the Catalog next to the packages in the near future.

Thanks,

Thanks for the answer, Rene, I think we will have to be patient waiting for the catalog update. Following is the list from a customer we were looking for additional information on, which I did not find much on from your referenced sites either using the catalog title entry for the search criteria.

1. Alarm Severity List- Services
2. Cisco switches application package
3. DataMiner Dashboards Templates
4. DataMiner Platform Monitoring
5. Embed Dashboard in Visio
6. GQI Playbook
7. Incident Manager
8. Regression Tests
9. Services Overview
10. StarterServerDashboard
11. Cisco Manager application package

Just adding information but right now for the Catalog the (only) main source is the docs and it will display the description/images from there.

Hi Jordy, so I am looking at the Docs for the packages in the list above and not finding any references. Can you send me a link to where I should be looking, or could it be that there is no reference material for the applications yet. Currently I am using https://docs.dataminer.services/ and looked in User Guide, Developer Documentation and Connector Documentation with no luck for the couple I tried to find (GQI Playbook or Cisco Switches Application).
