Populating the List of Objects

The list of objects is populated in two ways:

• Manual creation and editing of the object
• Automatic population of objects by configuring the setup according to a specified schedule

Manual Population of Objects

Manual configuration allows you to create or edit an object by filling in the object's fields.

Manual Object Creation

To create a new object, follow these steps:

1. Select the Object item in the Main Menu under the User Behavior Analytics section
2. Select the required object type from the Type Select dropdown menu at the top of the table
3. Click the Create button at the top of the page, to the right of the search field
4. Fill out the form in the modal window and click Create

5. The created object will appear in the list of objects

To edit an object, follow these steps:

1. Select the Object item in the Main Menu under the User Behavior Analytics section
2. Find the object in the object table
3. Click the pencil icon in the far-right column
4. The object fields will become editable; enter the necessary values

5. Let's also translate this: Click the Save button in the modal window to finish editing and apply the changes.
6. The edited object will be saved

note

Only manually created objects are available for editing. Generated objects are updated automatically and are not available for editing.

When creating and editing objects, two field types are available for each base and additional field:

• Text
• Array

Switching between field types is done using the corresponding toggle located to the left of the field name. When the Text field type is selected, the field will appear as follows (toggle in the left position):

When the Array field type is selected, the field will appear as follows (toggle in the right position):

note

Switching from the Array field type to the Text field type is only possible if the array contains no more than one element.

warning

Avoid creating duplicates when creating or editing. Duplicates will not be added to the list of objects.

Automatic Population of Objects

Automatic population of objects allows you to avoid manually creating objects. The population occurs automatically according to the configured setup, which can be executed once or according to a schedule.

Configuration List

The configuration page contains a list of created configurations with the ability to filter using the Search field.

To go to the configuration list page, select the Configurations item in the Main Menu under the User Behavior Analytics section. The configuration list is a table containing the following data:

• Configuration name
• Object type
• Index
• Launch schedule

For each configuration, a list of actions is available (far-right column), which includes:

• Editing, which allows you to go to the configuration settings page
• Configuring configuration permissions
• Cloning the configuration
• Enabling/Disabling the configuration
• Deleting the configuration

For the selected (checkbox-marked) configurations, a list of actions is available (the Edit selected dropdown and the Delete <n> configurations button), which includes:

• Editing permissions for all selected configurations
• Enabling all selected configurations
• Disabling all selected configurations
• Deleting all selected configurations. The bulk delete button for configurations is displayed only when configurations are selected

To create a new configuration, use the Create button located to the right of the Search field. To go to the editing page, click on the configuration name or select the corresponding item in the table's action menu.

Configuration Setup

The configuration setup page is used to create and edit the parameters for populating objects. When you go to the configuration setup page, a panel with a form of parameters will open, containing the following sections:

• Basic
• Schedule
• Filtration
• Objects Settings
• Additional Settings

Basic

The basic settings section contains the following fields:

1. Name - the name of the configuration
2. Description - the description of the configuration. Intended for a detailed description of the configuration

Schedule

The schedule section is used to set the frequency of launching the configuration. There is an option to use:

1. Interval
2. Cron expression

Filtration

The filtering section is used to filter data processed for creating the list of objects and contains the following fields:

1. Index from which data will be collected
2. Time interval for filtering data by time
3. Field containing the timestamp
4. Filter - the expression by which filtering will be performed

Objects Settings

This section contains various settings for the resulting object:

1. UBA object Type - determines the object's belonging to one of the types
2. Id field - the field by which the object's uniqueness will be determined
3. Basic and Additional Fields - fields that will be written to the resulting object

Additional Settings

This section contains the following configuration settings:

1. Objects size - a limit on the number of objects that will be written
2. Lock duration seconds
3. Start config - enabling/disabling the execution of the configuration

Automatic Object Population Algorithm

After filling out the configuration settings form, click Save to save the configuration and execute it according to the specified schedule.

Click Preview to view the preliminary population of objects. The settings panel will be hidden, and a table of objects will appear. The page contains:

1. Filtering of found objects through the Search field
2. Information about the found objects. Located above the table
3. Table of objects

If you need to change the settings, click the arrow icon to the right of the Search filter field. After completing the preview, click the Fill button to populate the list of objects. Upon successful population, you will receive a notification, and the Save button to save the configuration, Cancel button to reset the settings and return to the list of configurations, and the Go to the list of objects button will appear.

warning

Duplicates may be found during automatic population. Duplicates will not be included in the list of objects, and you will receive a notification.
