Cisco Spaces Location Metrics

Once the Cisco Spaces integration is set up and events are being processed successfully, IBM MAS Monitor begins to display real-time and historical location-based metrics fetched directly from Cisco Spaces.

These metrics provide deep insights into user presence, movement, and positioning within a mapped floor or space.

Accessing Location Metrics

You can view metrics associated with a Cisco Spaces location using either of the following methods:

  1. Navigate via Floor Name Link

    • Go to the Cisco Spaces Locations table.
    • Click on the Floor Name (which is a clickable link) for the subscribed location.

    Navigate 1

  2. Search from Locations Tab

    • Go to the Monitor → Locations tab.
    • Search for the location by its mapped Floor Name.
    • Select the matching location from the results to open the detailed location view.

    Navigate 1

Once inside the location page, view the Metrics section to see Cisco Spaces data. Metrics
