tag_exclude_selector parameter in Qualys is taking long time to retrieve when set to "any"

In "Qualys Host List Integration" I have a requirement to exclude certain tags from Qualys for which I am using "tag_set_exclude" parameter to specify unwanted tags . As i don't want any of mentioned tags to be there in record so i changed "tag_exclude_selector" to "any" . After this change the integration is taking forever to retrieve the data . when the selector was "all" it took few minutes to retrieve . 

What could be the issue when i change "tag_exclude_selector" to "any" its taking a long time to retrieve data ?

It is now checking on each record to see if there is a tag and then again if there is another tag and then again if there is another tag. Why not use 'all'? Then it just checks if there's a tag, not for all of them after each other.


Please mark any helpful or correct solutions as such. That helps others find their solutions.

Hi Mark,

 

If i set it to "all" it will be like all the mentioned tags should not be there. Our requirement is if any 1 tag is present then we want to exclude the record from qualys . 

In "all" it has to satisfy all tags . For example - A,B,C all three should not be there . But if A,B are not there and C is present then with "all" it will not exclude the record.

Hi @harshw @Mark Manders 

I have added a ID under "tag_set_exclude" to exclude. Still related values/VITs are coming in system. What could be the issue?

 

Actually the issue is resolved , It was an issue with particular tag and a property was changed in Qualys . After that its working as expected.
