Notifications, geofences, notifications... ¿MUST everything be linked one by one for EVERY user and EVERY DEVICE?

Walter Spada 21 days ago

Exactly as the title says.

I have lots of devices and lots of users, with lots of geofences....
Can't be enabling everything one by one in an AWFULLY uncomfortable and anti-user badly developed GUI that can't handle many objects or settings at the same time on the screen.

Old GUI was way better on mostly everything.

¿is there any other way to do it or that's it? ¿any way to bring back old GUI?

It's a good GUI it just didn't account for this case. I also think part of the problem is the API that the web app uses can only link one object at a time. Please consider providing comment to this feature request to increase the chance of improvement: https://github.com/traccar/traccar-web/issues/1669

In the mean time the work around that I use is a script in Postman to link Geofences to users via the API.

If you want to see change using aggressive language is not a good idea.

At first, like you, I did everything manually, but it turns out that Groups work great for this. You create a group that contains all the necessary geofences and add that group to the user.

Group does not add permissions for geofences.

In fact, groups add geofences to devices, not users - my mistake.
