Add a Column to the Metadata Table
By default, eight columns are shown: Id, Connector, Status, Received Date, Response Date, Errors, Source, and Type. You can add columns to and remove columns from the table, one at a time, using the Column Options icon/menu in the list's column header.
Note: The Messages Lists for all channels have the same column configuration; that is, any columns added to/removed from the Messages List of one channel are added to/removed from the Messages List of all channels. You can add as many available columns as you would like, though not all will be visible onscreen at once. If all columns cannot be viewed onscreen, a horizontal scroll bar appears below the Messages List. Scroll left or right to view the desired columns/data.
Removing a column does not remove its data; the data reappears when you add the column back to the Messages List.
Use the following steps to add a column to the Message List.
- On the Column Options menu, select or deselect the column(s) you would like to add or remove from the column header.
Note: The following list-related tasks are also available on the Column Options menu:
- Collapse All - Shows only the Source Connector row of each message in the Messages List.
- Expand All - Shows the Source Connector row and Destination row(s) of each message in the Messages List (as in the previous graphic).
- Restore Default - Reconfigures the Messages List to contain the eight default columns (see the introductory paragraph in this section).
You can pause the pointer on a column header to reveal a tool-tip with a description of that column's function.
