Use Case: Real-Time Administrator Tracking Panel

In an administrator application, there is a screen titled ‘View Active Users.’ The administrator wants to see who is currently active in the system. This information is used to analyse system load and take user-specific action (e.g., send notifications) when necessary.

Application Flow:

Element: ‘Get Active Users’ button
Trigger: OnClick
Action: Authorisation → Get Online Users
Display of Results: The user data is displayed in a table.

Results returned by the actions:

User Name
Email
Session Start Time
IP Address (if available)
Status (Online)

Get Online Users Action Advanced Customisation

Automatic Refresh: The action can be triggered at specified intervals to display an up-to-date list with real-time data.
Notification Integration: After the active user list is retrieved, information can be sent to specific users via Send Push Notification.

Technical Risks and Controls

Data Delay: Online user information may not be instantaneous; delays of a few seconds may occur depending on system load.
Authorisation Restriction: It is recommended that this action be available only to specific roles (e.g. Admin).
Excessive Refresh: The server may be overloaded when the page is opened or triggered too often. It is recommended to run it with a timer control. Recurring Actions can be used for this purpose.

The Get Online Users action is a powerful tool for viewing and analysing active users within the application. Real-time user information provides administrators with insights into system load while also enabling them to analyse user interactions and take necessary actions.
