​
Managing Detectors

Once you have created a detector, you can manage it through the Detectors page. You can edit, duplicate, or delete detectors as needed.

​
Applying Detectors to Content

To apply a detector to your content, you need to create a monitor. Monitors are used to specify when a detector should be applied to your content. You can create a monitor manually or let Qualifire handle it for you. Once you have created a monitor, Qualifire will automatically apply the detector to your content. The detector will be applied to all requests that match the specified criteria.

​
Observing Detectors

Qualifire provides a detailed view of the detector’s application to your content. You can see the results of the detector’s checks, the severity level, and any issues or failed checks that were identified.
