Asset Profiles

Asset profiles let you centrally define common settings and metadata for a group of similar assets — queue, image, and description. Instead of configuring each asset individually, you define the profile once and assign it to as many assets as needed.

  1. Navigate to Profiles → Asset profiles.
  2. Click + and select Create new asset profile.
  3. Enter a Name (the only required field).
  4. Optionally configure the queue, image, and description.
  5. Click Add.
  1. Click the profile name or the pencil icon.
  2. Update the desired details.
  3. Click Apply changes.

Click the trash icon next to a non-default profile and confirm deletion.

Clicking a profile opens a details panel with the following tabs:

TabContents
DetailsProfile name, queue, image, and description
Audit LogHistory of user actions performed on this profile

By default, all messages use the Main queue. Assign a custom queue to isolate high-priority assets from high-volume ones, or to apply different submit and processing strategies.

Export asset profile downloads the profile’s configuration as a JSON file — useful for backup or for migrating a profile between iRis Cloud instances. Import asset profile (from the + Add asset profile menu) creates a new profile from a previously exported file.

Sets this profile as the tenant’s default — the one pre-selected in the Asset profile field when creating a new asset without explicitly choosing one. Only one profile can be the default at a time.

Editing a profile’s Queue immediately affects every asset already assigned to that profile — there’s no need to touch individual assets. This is the main advantage of configuring these settings at the profile level instead of per asset.

Moving an asset to a different profile (in Edit an Asset) applies that profile’s queue going forward.

SymptomCauseFix
Custom queue isn’t selectable when editing a profileThe queue hasn’t been created yetCustom queues must be configured by a System Administrator before they can be assigned to a profile
New asset doesn’t get the profile you expectedNo profile was selected at creation, so the tenant’s default profile was appliedCheck which profile is marked default — see Make Asset Profile Default — or select the profile explicitly when creating the asset
Imported asset profile fails or looks incompleteThe JSON file was edited by hand or exported from an incompatible iRis Cloud versionRe-export the original profile and import that file unmodified
  • Assets — every asset is assigned exactly one profile, inheriting its queue
  • REST API — query, create, and manage asset profiles programmatically
