      Tanium Session (pre 6.1) The Tanium Session SOAP key (for Tanium versions prior to 6.1). For Tanium 6.1 and later installations, this field is typically left empty.
      Running Processes Sensor The name of the Running Processes sensor to use. For example, Running Processes.
      IP Address Sensor The name of the IP address sensor to use for limiting a query to a set of specific client machines. For example, IP Address.
