Avant de commencer

Role required: scan_admin

Procédure

1. Navigate to All > Instance Scan > Checks.
2. Select New from the Checks context menu.
   The Check Interceptor list appears.
3. Select one of the available types of checks.
   See Check types for more information.

   Remarque :

   If you want to update an existing check, the Version field increments itself. The new version provides you a change history. You can also know which particular version of the check ran with a given scan.

• Create a table type check
  Create a check by selecting Create a new Table Check if you know which specific table and conditions you want to test. This check type is applied on only one table at a time. You can also include your own script for more complex capabilities by selecting the Advanced option on the form.
• Create a column type check
  Retrieve all records containing a specific column field type from all tables in an instance by selecting Create a new Column Type Check. The Column Type Check type implements the rule you created to iterate all records matching the target column field type.
• Create a script only check
  Create a check without specifying a table or a column type by selecting Create a new Script Only Check. You can verify meta data, configurations, and execute complex checks by writing your own script.
• Create a linter check
  Create a linter check to identify any issues in a script. When a linter check is run on a record, an abstract syntax tree for its code is generated. You can use the abstract syntax tree to analyze issues with the code.
