Group By Meta Key MappingsGroup By Meta Key Mappings

When alerts are grouped on an alert field, all matching alerts containing the same meta key value for that field are grouped together in the same incident. For example, if you select the Group By field value Destination Host, it uses the mapped meta key alert.groupby_host_dst. All alerts with the same meta key value for alert.groupby_host_dst are grouped together in the same incident.

The following table shows the mapped meta keys for the Group By field selections.
