Detections

Detections are stored queries that run periodically in the background. This way new results are found promptly and listed in the Detection Results page. For each detection you can also configure a desired action that will be executed when new results are found.

Creating a Detection

There are two ways to create detections. The first way is to create a detection directly from the query page. To do this, the query must first be executed. If the query returns results, a detection can be created from it. This is done by clicking the button Save Query as Detection.

Create detection from query

You will then be taken directly to the detection creation page, with the query already filled in.

The second way to create a detection is to go directly to the Detections page and click on the Create new Detection button to go to the creation page.

Create detection directly

To create a detection, a few more fields are required in addition to the query.

Field Description
Name The name of the detection
Active Switch to activate detection (Only active detections are considered for the subscription quota)
Description The description of the detection
Action The defined action which is executed when new results are found
Shared If the user is part of an organization the detection can be shared among all organization members
Notifications Switch to trigger system notification when new results are found
Query The actual query which is executed in the background

Detection Results

The results of the detection are listed on a separate page. Results can be filtered with a full text search. Via the button on the far right of the respective result line, further details can be retrieved.
