10.5.1 Adding an Option to the Event Menu

Users with the appropriate permissions can add new actions to the event menu that appears when
users right-click an event or events in any event table. There are three types of actions that can be
configured for the event menu:
Execute Command: Executes a script or an application, and opens the output in a specified
application. This action can take the value of a field or fields as input, and can only be executed
on a single event.

the value of a field or fields as input, and can only be executed on a single event.
JavaScript Actions configured through the Action Manager. JavaScript actions can be executed
on a single event or multiple events.
NOTE: Some JavaScript action plug-ins require a correlated event or incident as input. Actions
configured from these plug-ins are excluded from the Event Menu Configuration list. This Action
Plugin property is defined by the developer.

1 Click the Admin tab.
2 In the Admin Navigator, click Admin > Event Menu Configuration.
