Customize tooltips for all map object types in the SolarWinds Platform Web Console to display additional information using alert variables, custom properties, and other text.

  • Tooltip customizations are global, and affect all maps.
  • Orion EOC does not support custom web console tooltips.
  • To enter a carriage return, use ${CR}. See Network Atlas tooltip variables for a list of available variables.
