The My Alerts Administrator module module of the iShare Studio is an optional module to administer the MyAlerts My Alerts user-base.
This module makes it possible for an Administrator to perform such tasks as removing users, resetting passwords and changing other details with relative ease – unlike manually editing inside the Postgres PostgreSQL database which can lead to errors – such as workflow problems and data/table corruption – which costs expensive consultancy time to fix.
My Alerts Administrator is r is designed to be used by nominated System Administrators only. For this reason, Studio presents a login panel when this module is selected and requires you to log in.
Before you can see the MyAlerts My Alerts node in Studio you will first need to Configure MyAlertsto:
- Create your My Alerts database - This can be created using the AstunPGInstaller which may be found in the following folder e.g. D:\Astun\ishare\n.n\AstunPGInstaller. Enter the details of your Data Share database and click the My Alerts... button.
- Configure My Alerts.

As part of your MyAlerts My Alerts installation your Astun consultant will configure at least one MyAlerts My Alerts administrator account. This account may then be used to create other users and allow them administrator privileges.
