Using Senturo Actions in IncidentIQ

Perform Device Management Commands Directly from IncidentIQ

Overview

Once the IncidentIQ Integration has been configured in Senturo, authorized users can perform key device management actions directly within the IncidentIQ interface.

These actions appear as clickable Senturo links under each device’s Meta Information section and allow administrators to secure, locate, or update devices without leaving IncidentIQ.

Available Senturo Actions

1. View Location

Description:
Displays the device’s most recent location on a map, including coordinates, timestamp, and export options for historical records.

Steps:

  1. In IncidentIQ, click "Click to view location."

  2. A new window will open showing a map with the device’s last known position.
  3. To download a history of recent locations, click "Export Last 15 Location Records."

 

2. Change Status

Description:
Allows administrators to update the device’s status in Senturo as either Monitored or Missing.

Steps:

  1. In IncidentIQ, click "Click to change status."

  2. Choose Device Monitored or Device Missing.

  3. Click "Update Status."

 

3. Lock Device

Description:
Locks the selected device to prevent unauthorized access. Administrators can customize the lock screen with a message, contact number, password, and optional images.

Steps:

  1. In IncidentIQ, click "Click to lock device."

  2. Enter a Contact Number and Password.

  3. Optionally upload images for the lock screen and include a custom message.

  4. Click "Lock Device."

 

4. Unlock Device

Restores access to a previously locked device. Once the unlock command is issued, the device will unlock automatically when it reconnects to the network.

  2. Review the confirmation message.

  3. Check "Accept Liability."

  4. Click "Wipe Device."


Warning: This action cannot be undone. Once executed, all data on the device will be permanently deleted.

Limitations

  • Links open in the same tab: Due to IncidentIQ’s current platform limitations, Senturo action links cannot open in new browser tabs automatically.

    To work around this, right-click a link and select "Open Link in New Tab."

Conclusion

With Senturo actions available directly in IncidentIQ, IT administrators can quickly secure, locate, or manage devices without switching platforms.

This seamless integration enhances workflow efficiency and centralizes device management within the existing support environment.
