A list of the devices you manage in Datto RMM can be accessed from the site, filter, or group they are associated with, or by performing a search.

NOTE To view all devices you are managing, navigate to Sites and click the Default Device Filter called All Devices in the category Type. Many other Default Device Filters are also available.
Search for devices
You can search for devices in your permitted sites by using the Search field at the top of the Web Portal.
- Enter a search term of at least three characters. You can enter more than one word, without quote marks.
NOTE Searches are not case sensitive.
- The search results will display any device that contains the search term in the Hostname, Description, IP Address, Last User, or External IP Address fields of the device.
- Alternatively, you can target your search by prefixing your search terms with field identifiers. You can enter the field identifiers manually or select any of them from a drop-down list by clicking on the down arrow
to the left of the Search field.
The following field identifiers are available:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| hostname: | The hostname of the device. |
| desc: | The description of the device. |
| serial: | The serial number of the device. |
| ip: | The IP address of the device. |
| lastuser: | The last user who accessed the device. |
| sitename: | The name of the site the device is added to. |
| sitedesc: | The description of the site the device is added to. |
| extip: | The external IP address of the device. |
| "User-Defined Field 1:" (User-Defined Fields 1-30) |
The user-defined field value (1-30) of the device. |
EXAMPLE Searching for hostname:printserver will list all devices that have printserver in their hostname.
NOTE Searches are not case sensitive.
- When using field identifiers in your search, and the search term contains a space, quote marks need to be used.
EXAMPLE If the description of the device is Front Office, you can target your search the following way: "desc:front office".
- When using one of the user-defined fields (UDFs) as a field identifier in your search, make sure that you enter an account-level UDF. Site-level UDFs are not supported in the search. If the search term contains a space, quote marks need to be used.
EXAMPLE "User-Defined Field 1:Joe" will list all devices where User-Defined Field 1 displays Joe.
EXAMPLE If User-Defined Field 1 has been renamed to Assigned User at the account level, you will see "Assigned User:" in the field identifier drop-down list. Searching for "Assigned User:Joe" will list all devices where Assigned User displays Joe.
EXAMPLE If you want to search for Joe Smith in the Assigned User UDF field, you can target your search the following way: "Assigned User:Joe Smith".
