Example: Set a timer to run enrichment actions


Suppose you want to automatically raise the severity and change the owner of all the unassigned Major events, after a duration of 6 hours has lapsed.

Actions involved: Timeout, If-Then-Else, Enrich

Event selection criteria: Define a condition to select all the events.

The following image illustrates how the event selection criteria will look.
