Approaches to Maintaining Keyed Lists

Keyed lists are used in some predefined reports and in some predefined queries tagged as appropriate for action alerts. If you plan to use these reports or create alerts that use these queries, you can use any combination of the following approaches to maintaining your keyed lists.

• You can add key values directly for any selected key. You can also select any key value and edit or delete it.
• You can import key values stored in a CSV list. Or, you can export the current list of values as a CSV file, update that file, and then import the updated file to populate the values list.
• You can run a CA IT PAM process that dynamically generates a current list and returns the values as a CSV file that populates the values list.

If you plan to create custom reports that use a keyed list, you can add a custom key and then add or import its values.

You can identify the keyed list or lists used in a query and then update that list before scheduling a report or alert that includes that query.
