Issue/Introduction

When creating a Group directly from the Inventory page using filter criteria, the resulting group is static, not dynamic.

The entities included in the group are strictly limited to the number of inventory items currently loaded and visually displayed on the page at the time of creation.

Use Case Context:
This limitation impacts workflows where users attempt to create a "Default catch-all" group designed to automatically capture all new or existing entities that do not have a service configured.

Because the group is static, it will not automatically populate with newly discovered or modified entities.

From the Inventory group view, filters cannot be defined or set based on custom values.

Cause

DE681606: The Inventory page utilizes lazy-loading (infinite scroll) to optimize platform performance.

The page only loads a fixed number of items initially; as a user scrolls down, more items are queried and displayed.

Filtering on this page only captures the data currently rendered in the active session UI, making the group a fixed snapshot rather than a dynamic query.

This is currently working as designed.

Resolution

To create a truly Dynamic Group that automatically updates based on filter criteria (such as catching all entities without a configured service), use the dedicated group creation wizard rather than the Inventory page shortcut. List of filters will be expanded for this approach.
