New Unallocated Resources

The workflow for unallocated resources will assist you in tracking newly discovered unattached cloud resources

Workflow Triggers

You can wait for Klarity to trigger your workflow or set your own. There are two triggers you can choose from:

• Scan Completed: Klarity scans your cloud every 24 hours. After scanning, the workflow will start.

• Scheduler: This is a manual method of creating your own scheduler. Here you can choose the starting date and the execution time and set it to run once or repeat it; If repeating, you will need to add an end date.
