  • After you complete the mapping step, preview the values that you mapped in a SIR security incident. This preview step permits you to verify that you have mapped all the offense fields that you want displayed on the security incident.

    Before you begin

    Role required: sn_si.admin

    About this task

    As a user with the sn_si.admin role, preview a security incident and edit the mapping again as required to fix fields with errors or to populate any missing data. If the preview is not successfully completed, you cannot proceed to the scheduling step. Previews of SIR security incidents are not saved as actual incidents in the Security Incident Response product.

    Procedure

    1. If the security incident preview is not displayed, click Preview in the progress bar.
    2. From the Sample Offense IDs choice list, select an item.
      The security incident is displayed. This view is a read-only view, and a record of this security incident is not saved.
    3. Review the field mapping of the offense values on the security incident.
