Configuring Event Attributes by Category

Any changes done at the category level apply to all groups and all events within the selected category.

To set the Event Attributes by category level:

1. In the Log > Settings page, click the Edit icon in the right-most column of the row with the category you want to edit. The Edit Log Category dialog for that category is displayed.
2. Follow the steps in Configuring Event Attributes Globally.
