Deprecated: Fleet events is a temporary replacement for legacy Inflight/Action Items functionality for users with access to data usage thresholds. We are working to incorporate this functionality and the /alerts endpoints into Event monitoring and Alerts and will phase out this feature once that conversion is complete.
Limited access: Data usage thresholds have limited functionality, cannot trigger notifications, are not accessible in Alerts, and cannot be viewed for a single SIM. They are only available at an organization level.If a passive monitoring system is still useful to your organization, you can request access by contacting support.

What are data usage thresholds?

Data usage thresholds are set per-SIM, and are triggered when a SIM’s usage crosses a threshold you define after a data session closes. Data usage thresholds, like data usage limits, are tracked at the SIM’s unique 30-day billing cycle. Data usage thresholds do not prevent data usage, they are passive events you can monitor to then take action before incurring additional charges or reaching a data usage limit. For automated data usage enforcement, combine alerts with data usage limits to track usage, and then pause data when the limit is reached.
Warning: Data usage thresholds do not pause SIM data. To automatically stop data at a threshold, set a data usage limit instead.

Set a data usage threshold for a single SIM

  1. Find the SIM in the SIMs pages or using global search.
  2. Open the Manage SIM menu in the header, and select Set data usage alert.
  3. Enter the threshold amount in KB/MB/GB, and confirm the update.

Set data usage thresholds in bulk

You can apply usage thresholds for up to 10,000 SIMs at a time from the SIMs pages.
  1. Navigate to the SIMs section in your dashboard and open the Active SIMs page.
  2. Use filters and sorting to find and select the SIMs you want to set usage thresholds for.
  3. Open the Manage SIMs menu at the top of the page and choose Set data usage threshold.
  4. Configure the usage threshold settings and select Update.
Warning: When updating data usage thresholds in bulk, all existing thresholds will be replaced.

Set data usage thresholds during activation or when changing data plans

In the Review rates and coverage step of the SIM activation and change data plan process, you can set a new data usage threshold for your selected SIMs.
Warning: When updating data usage thresholds during activation or when changing data plans, all existing thresholds will be removed. If you specify a new usage threshold for your SIMs, all existing thresholds will be replaced with the new setting.

Fleet events (deprecating)

Fleet Events are a limited feature only available to certain legacy accounts, and are in the process of being merged into Alerts and Event Monitoring.
