3. Select the button on the top right labeled ‘Edit Endpoint’.
4. A pop-up screen titled ‘Update Endpoint’ will appear allowing you to add a custom tag. Enter a unique tag name in the ‘Custom Tags’ field that will be an identifier for this endpoint. This is what you’ll be able to create a report of in the future.

Before you can create a report on your new dataset, a nightly processing run will need to be completed so all new custom tags are properly applied to your endpoints.

1. From your Vyopta environment, go to Datasets>Endpoints.

3. Once your results are retrieved, select the ‘Share’ button on the top right to run the report on your custom tags.
