AVCC Website Guide - Adding & Editing Endpoints

Introduction

If you are wanting to add an endpoint to out National Endpoint Directory, you will need to create an account on our website and tick the 'Apply for Operator' box during the application process. After you have an account, you can follow the steps below to add and edit endpoints. 

1. Adding an Endpoint
2. Editing an Endpoint
3. Transferring Ownership of an Endpoint

Adding an Endpoint 

Step 1 Login to the AVCC Website with you credentials Under the "My Options" heading in the main menu, select Create Content, then Add an Endpoint.
Step 2 Enter all relevant information that you have for creating the Endpoint. Be sure to enter all the mandatory fields, which are marked with a red star. Please ensure that you use the "Tab" button when cycling through fields. Refrain from pressing the "Enter" key as this will attempt to submit the form and can affect your entry input process.
Step 3 As you scroll down entering the relevant endpoint information, you will come to the location section. This is a Google Maps generated section where you locate the latitude and longitude of where your endpoint physically resides. By hovering the mouse over the map, you can use your scroll wheel or navigation buttons at the top left of the Google Map to zoom in and out. By holding down your left mouse button, you can move the map left, right, up and down. Use these features to zoom into where your endpoint location is. Once you have located visually where your endpoint resides, you can use the left TIP - you can type your endpoint address into the Street and City fields above the map and press the "Tab" key. If entered in accordance to Google Map entry conditions, the map should automatically update and zoom into that address, BUT only once the endpoint entry is saved (in step 4). You may need to make some slight manual adjustments to where the marker is.
Step 4 Press the "Save" button at the bottom of the form and this will complete the process.

Editing an Existing Endpoint

 To edit an endpoint, ensure that you are logged into the AVCC website with your credentials. Then in the My Options section of the navigation bar, select:

1. My Options > View all my Content
   This will then take you to a page showing all the different types of content you have contributed to the website.
2. You will then need to filter by Content Type. Select "Endpoint" from the drop down box and press "Apply".
3. You can now click on the Endpoints that are under your ownership and start editing their field properties by clicking the edit tab in the top left corner. 

Alternatively, You can also edit endpoints you own by simply locating them in the Endpoint Directory, then clicking the edit tab in the top left corner.

Transferring Ownership of an Endpoint

If you are responsible for the administration of endpoints that have already been created on the AVCC website prior to the ability to assign endpoints ownership editing rights to users, then you can apply to have a listed endpoint assigned to your login account.

Once the endpoint is transferred to your login account, you will be able to edit the endpoint as referred to above in the "Editing an Endpoint" section.

To apply for the transfer, please email the AVCC Helpdesk with the following information

• Your username
• Endpoint Name you are requestiing to be transferred

We will endeavour to have this transferred to you as soon as possible.
