Manual Scanners

When the initial scan is complete, you can run additional on demand scans as required.

When you add or change a specific customization, you can choose to run an on demand scan of only the Metadata type of the affected customization, instead of scanning the entire environment. This type of scan reduces the run time. For example if you change a Report, pick reports as the Metadata type and Platform Governance for Salesforce only scans reports.

The scanner is only available to Administrators.

To run the scanner:

  1. Open Netwrix Dashboard > Scanner > Manual Scanners

  2. Use the optional Search Types to narrow the focus of the list if you are looking for a specific type.

  3. You can select + beside one or more types to scan or you can scan the whole environment by clicking + on the Name row to select all the types.
