Dashboard for active sessions

YES! Just as NAM has dashboard to see current number of online users, we should do the same.
Yes - we should. Currently in the release underway we are working on a new "MyAccess" UI that will bring PAM into alignment with our common UI initiative. However, we are not fully taking on the Admin UI in this release. This is where I believe such a dashboard would best fit. However, we are taking on some of it. So we are looking at "is this something we can do within existing scope of the current release" or is this something that will need to wait to beyond the 1H CY '18 release
As a followup to this - I went back and did some checking. We already have an "Active Session report" With that report, you can select settings -> filter and add the end time column. Then sort based on the column. Thank you to Gulshan Vaswani for the information. Is there something else that would be expected that this doesn't address?
Active Session Report is cool, Active Session Dashboard is different. Active Session Dashboard is something that displays at least who is connected where and preferably/optionally provide the ability to see(monitor) the live session.
Ok - so this is more of an Admin state or manager state that shows "all active sessions on the board" If we had the capability for "over the shoulder" monitoring then this would be from where it would initiated in your minds eye
I agree with what you say Mike that this would tie in to the "real time monitoring" feature we are missing. In my mind, it's the same experience users have when using AppManager Control Center. A user monitors the state of machines in the Service Map Views and when one shows an X, he can click on it and drill down. NAM kind of offers this already since it's basically just a Sentinel, but a dashboard like Kibana can easily list the machines that are accumulating "risk" to then drill down on them with a link that goes to the active session associated to it.
Because we are addressing the Admin console in the 1H CY'18 release of PAM and that includes reporting, we will add this IDEA to the requirements. So I am marking it as planned. PLEASE NOTE: I may have to cut this, and reserve the right to do so, because of timing - but we are going to give it a shot.
Any update please ?
