Manage Scan Profiles

Edit online
In Auto discovery > Scan profiles, you can perform the following actions to manage scan profiles:
  • Create - For each tenant, an object type can only be included in one scan profile. To create a scan profile for a tenant, click Create on the Scan profiles page, and refer to the instructions in the following sections based on the object types for which the scan profile is created.
    Note:
    • The auto discovery for Microsoft™ 365 / Google Workspace / Power® Platform is supported by corresponding app profiles. Before you configure a scan profile for a tenant to scan objects, ensure that the required app profiles have been configured in App management. For details on app profiles, see Manage App Profiles.
    • The auto discovery for Active Directory objects is only supported by the EnPower service. Before you configure scan profiles, ensure you have installed agents. For additional details, see Manage Agents.
  • View details - To view details of a scan profile, click the link in the Profile name column. The View details page appears. On the View details page, you can click Edit to edit the scan profile details and click View scan job history to view the scan profile’s job history. If you want to export the scan profile configuration, click the more actions () button, and then click Export configuration. For details on monitoring scan jobs, refer to View Details in Job Monitor.
    Note: Scan profiles will run jobs and randomly use app profiles which have the required permissions to scan objects. When you view the details of a scan job, the app profile used in the scan job will be displayed in the Authentication information table.
  • Edit - To edit a scan profile, select the profile on the Scan profiles page and click Edit, or click Edit on the View details page of the profile.
    Note: The tenant cannot be changed when you edit a scan profile.
  • To delete a scan profile, select the scan profile and click Delete. A pop-up window appears asking for your confirmation. To define how to deal with the scanned objects and configured custom containers, select a resolution from the following:
    • Delete the objects and custom containers along with the profile
      Note: The deletion only applies to scanned objects and configured custom containers. The default containers cannot be deleted.
    • Keep the objects and custom containers in the system

    Click Confirm.
