Aggregation tasks are processes that run continually in order to feed query data to Activeboard widgets or Devo applications. They are created in the search window when the query is saved as a new aggregation task.

...

The Status column shows if the task is active (green) or inactive (red). If the icon is yellow, it indicates the aggregation task is being removed, started, or stopped.

...

If you need to show the aggregation tasks of a specific time period you can use the buttons above the table.

...

You can filter specific content in the table using the column filters. Click the filter of the desired column and write the desired text. The filter icon will turn green and the table will show only those aggregation tasks containing that string in that column. This method can be used to filter by Name and Owner.

You can also filter by clicking cells on the table, or a specific part of it (for example, a tag or a status icon), to use its content as filtering criteria. The table will only show those aggregation tasks containing that information. This method can be used to filter by StatusOwner and Tag.

...

You can also negate filters, in other words, use the filtering criteria to hide data instead of isolating it. This way the table will show everything except the data meeting the filtering criteria. To do that, click the Negate filter button. They will be displayed in green if they are active and in red if they are negated.

...

Use the filters to narrow down or expand your search. You can click on the time buttons, enter text into the search bar, or use the drop-down menu to search by status.

...

Click the X that appears next to the filters applied to remove them. For the time-based filters, you need to click on the time button to remove the filter.
