Triggering quick actions

2024-02-01Last updated

You can trigger quick actions in the Genetec™ Web App using the function keys on your keyboard, or from the notification tray.

What you should know

  • A quick action is an action that is mapped to a function key on a keyboard.
  • Quick actions are the Genetec Web App equivalent to hot actions in Security Desk.
  • To trigger a quick action in the Genetec Web App, hold Shift and press a function key. For example, pressing Shift+F1 triggers the first quick action in the list.
    Note: Hot actions must be mapped from Security Desk before the quick actions menu appears in the Genetec™ Web App.
  • Depending on your browser, some function keys might already have associated browser-based commands. To verify how to trigger your quick actions, consult the Quick actions () menu.

Procedure

Do one of the following:
  • In the notification tray, click Quick actions () and select one from the list.
