“Install Application” missing under ActionsSolved

Hey everyone, 

I was trying to push an app to a device and went to the Actions dropdown in the Hexnode portal, but I couldn’t find the “Install Application” option anywhere. 

Spent a good few minutes thinking it wasn’t available for that device or maybe something wasn’t configured right. 

Turns out… the list is scrollable 😅I only noticed it after randomly trying to scroll inside the dropdown, and there it was. Honestly, it’s not very obvious that more options are hidden below. 

Would be great if there were some sort of visual indicator (like arrows or a fade) to show that the list can be scrolled. Might save others some confusion.

Oh yeahI’ve run into this before. The dropdown looks static at first glance, so it doesn’t really suggest there’s more content below. 

A small UI hint would definitely help, especially for actions like app installation that are used pretty often.

Thanks for pointing this out! 

You’re right—the Actions dropdown can contain multiple options, and in some cases, not all of them are visible upfront due to space constraints. Scrolling within the list will reveal additional actions like Install Application. 

We understand how the lack of a visual cue can make this easy to miss. Your suggestion about adding indicators (like arrows or scroll hints) makes sense from a usability perspective, and we’ll be sure to pass this along to the team for consideration.
