Best Practices

Naming Conventions

  • Use descriptive names that indicate the batch purpose
  • Choose monikers that are easy to reference in automation
  • Include relevant details in descriptions for team clarity

Batch Organization

  • Group endpoints with similar requirements or use cases
  • Consider geographic or functional groupings
  • Plan batch structure before large-scale endpoint deployments

Operational Considerations

  • Verify tenant assignments before bulk operations
  • Test allocation changes with small batches first
  • Monitor endpoint connectivity after batch operations
  • Document batch purposes for team reference

Workflow Integration

Batches serve as the foundation for workflow execution in the Stacuity platform. Once endpoints are organized into batches, various automated workflows can be applied to all endpoints in the batch simultaneously, including:

  • Configuration updates
  • Policy applications
  • Monitoring setup
  • Bulk operations

This batch-based approach significantly reduces administrative overhead when managing large numbers of endpoints across the Stacuity IoT platform.
