About this task

You can also add observables to the URL category list directly from the Observable record.

Procedure

  1. Navigate to All > Zscaler Integration > Zscaler URL Category List Entries.

  2. Click New.

  3. On the form, fill in the fields.

FieldDescription
Entry ValueObservable name. If a matching observable is found, the rest of the form is automatically filled. If no matching observable is found, you must fill in the rest of information manually.
ObservableValue \(for example, IP address or hash\) that is associated with the observable.
Observable TypeObservable classification, such as an IP address or file hash.
URL Category ListURL category. For example, if an organization uses example.com for Office 365 services, then Zscaler categorizes example.com as Professional Services and Office 365.
SourceName of the server. You can view only the previously configured Zscaler servers from the URL category list.
Incident countNumber of incidents that this observable appears in. This value is automatically updated when the observable is added to another incident manually or through a workflow.
ActiveIndicator that the URL category list is active.
StatusStatus if the observable is approved or rejected.
Expiration Period \(days\)

Expiration period of the URL category list. 0 (by default) indicates that the URL category list entry never expires.

By changing this value, any observable that you add to this URL category is active for the number of days that you enter. You can enter a minimum value of 1.

For example, if you set the expiration period to 30 days, the entries are removed from the category list after 30 days.

Note: If you change the default expiration period of the URL category list entry, you see a warning that the period differs from the period that is configured in the selected URL category list.
