Discover EES tutorial

This section provides a tutorial on how to edit events in Advanced mode in the Discover Event Manager, which enables editing access to the JavaScript™ in which events and event-related objects are created.

Note: Advanced mode is considered an administrator-level function. Novice users or users who are not familiar with JavaScript coding should not edit events in Advanced mode.

For most event objects, creating and editing them in Basic mode is sufficient; the user interface enables configuration of all object properties necessary to define the object and to apply it to the session data stream.

For more information about Basic mode, see Discover Event Manager.

For some types of configuration, however, Discover users must manipulate the JavaScript in which the event object is defined. For example, if you are using regular expressions in the evaluation of hit attributes, they must be defined through Advanced mode. After these objects were changed in Advanced mode, they must be edited in Advanced mode only thereafter.

Note: After you create or edit objects in Advanced mode, they cannot be edited in Basic mode afterward.

For more information about the Advanced mode interface, see Advanced Mode for Events.
