Search in the following attributes: SAMAccountName, DisplayName, AccountSid, DistinguishedName |
You can save any search for later reuse. Any IT Security Search operator or administrator can save searches and run saved searches, but only administrators can make them public for shared use.
To save a search, click the drop-down icon at the left edge of the search box and click Save Current Search. Proceed to configure your search in the popup that appears:
|
For example, Domain:{{Domain}} will make IT Security Search prompt you for the value of the Domain field, labeled "Domain"; Domain:{{Active Directory Domain}} will also prompt you for the value of Domain, but the label will be "Active Directory Domain". You can manually construct search strings that include this syntax, without using the field selector. This helps you provide descriptive labels for parameters. |
When you have configured these options, click Save.
To run an existing saved search, click the drop-down icon at the left edge of the search box; the available saved searches are listed at the bottom of the popup that appears. You can filter the list by clicking tag buttons in the Saved Search Categories drop-down.
You can publish a search to make it available to all operators only if you are an IT Security Search administrator.
In the saved search list, the items have a lock icon showing their state. A private search has a closed lock icon; click the icon to make it public. A public search has an open lock icon; click the icon to make it private.
To delete a saved search, highlight it in the saved search list and click the cross icon.
Saved search import and export capabilities help you back up and restore your IT data analysis knowledge and share it with other IT Security Search users.
To use the Import and Export actions, click the drop-down icon at the left edge of the search box; these actions are available at the top of the drop-down menu.
When you click Export, you are prompted to save a *.yaml file. The resulting file will contain all saved searches created under your account plus any saved searches made public by administrators.
NOTE: This action saves not only searches but also any custom action links defined in your IT Security Search deployment. For details about making custom action links, see Customizing Action Links. |
When you click Import, you are prompted to select a previously exported *.yaml file. If the file includes any searches with the same names as your existing searches, you have the option to collectively skip, overwrite or automatically rename such searches.
IMPORTANT: Overwriting administrator-created public saved searches is disallowed for IT Security Search operators, but not for administrators; in this situation, if you are an operator, the search in the source file is silently skipped instead. |
