Unlike a static group, a dynamic workspace group periodically re-evaluates a condition filter: devices automatically join and leave the group depending on whether they meet it.

​
Create the group

  1. Go to Workspaces → Workspace groups.
  2. Apply the desired filter to the device list.
  3. Click Group management → Dynamic.
  4. Select Create group from current filter.
  5. In the form, add the Group name and the Synchronization interval.
  6. Click New.
The Synchronization interval is how often, in hours, the filter is re-evaluated. The default is 24 hours, with a minimum of 1 hour. When the group is created, the number of devices that currently match the configured filter is displayed.

​
Synchronize the group manually

  1. Go to Workspaces → Workspace groups.
  2. Select the group you want to synchronize to access its detail view.
  3. Click Synchronize now to force a re-evaluation of the filter without waiting for the configured interval.

​
Common use cases

A dynamic group is especially useful for applying one-off actions (for example, a microservice) to the set of devices that meet a condition at any given time, without having to maintain the device list manually.
