Enabling and Disabling External Event Types

The Event Adaptor also provides a fine grained configuration allowing administrators to enable and disable individual event types. This section describes how to achieve this.

To access the External Event Type admin page, login as a user with administrative privileges and navigate to the "Administration Workspace". Select "Event Adaptor" from the shortcuts panel. This will open the Event Adaptor tab.
