Hi,

I am working on a MIP Plugin and trying to programatically add a custom event to the Analytics Event list in Management Client GUI.

The goal is for my plugin to trigger this custom event but the end user should be able to select this event type from the Analytics Event list and use it for whatever purpose they envision.

You can create an analytics event using the Configuration API, which later can be triggered by various methods.

Try to explore the Config API Client sample.

Or try this using the strongly typed classes..

using VideoOS.Platform.ConfigurationItems;
 
private void CreateAnalyticsEvent(string name)
{
      ManagementServer ms = new ManagementServer(EnvironmentManager.Instance.MasterSite.ServerId);
      ms.AnalyticsEventFolder.AddAnalyticsEvent(name);
}
