After you create instances, you can navigate to Digital Twins > Instances to manage them.

Click the icons for Show devices grid or Show devices table to change how you view your instances.
Filter and Search Instances
Use the search bar to search by instance name.
Manage Individual Instances
From the Show devices grid view, you can use instance tiles to access management options. Refer to the image and callouts below.
[1] Action menu: The action menu displays the following options.
- Disconnect/Connect
- Edit
- Delete
[2] Copy Instance Topic
[3] Disconnect/Connect Instance
[4] Edit: Update the associated model, instance name, interval, and select/unselect the Flatten Hierarchy check box.
Note: When Flatten Hierarchy is selected, it will take a nested JSON object and convert it into a JSON object with one layer using dot notation. This is useful when sending JSON objects to Influxdb, because Influxdb does not accept nested JSON objects.
