Creating Analytic Templates

Analytic Templates are pairs of commands that originate in Command Templates. The command pairs are shown as Pre and Post on the app interface. Unlike Command Templates, the Analytic Templates do not run commands on devices at execution time, but instead utilize responses that have been collected at earlier automation stages by the Command Templates. The output of the Pre and Post commands in Analytic Templates is evaluated against each other according to a set of associated analytic rules.

See the Command Templates guide for additional information.
